| Guilt Guilt is like a sly fox getting into mischief, Guilt tastes like a sour lime being forced down your throat, Guilt sounds like a scream and a crack in your mind. Guilt feels like it’s the end of the world, Guilt smells like sweat that’s dissolving you, Guilt makes you wish that you never existed. You can never look at anyone when your guilty …… ….. It’s like your all alone Guilt is life. Sophie Yr 4 | Fear
Fear looks like something strange coming closer and closer to me. Fear smells like suffocating smoke. Fear tastes like a frozen icicle. Fear is the time when you hear your heart pounding from ear to ear. Fear is when you try to hide and runaway. Fear feels like you’re frozen and you can’t speak. Fear is when your bones start to shake and a shiver runs up your back. Fear is terrifying. By Sorel Yr 3. |
FearFear is like someone spying on you. Fear tastes like a frozen lake. Fear smells like suffering smoke. Fear is someone crawling closer and closer. Fear sounds like a sly tiger creeping. Fear is feeling like your about to faint. Fear makes you take a step back. Fear is a time when your heart starts to echo. Fear is not funny. Fear is a time to run away and hide. Fear is a time when things get real. Fear is terrifying. Kai Year 3 | Guilt Guilt tastes like a bitter grape fruit Guilt smells like sweat from an unwashed body Guilt looks like a huge wave crashing against the shore Guilt is it’s own small world Guilt sounds like the crack of a frozen pond Guilt avoids all the stares it can Guilt is a time to hide your emotions Guilt is a place to run away from Guilt is hell in it’s horrible way Meagan Yr 4 |
ShyShy is when you’re afraid to speak Shy is wishing you weren’t really there Shy is forcing you to wish you didn’t exist Shy can’t let you look people in the eye Shy pulls your finger into your mouth Shy is making you that you really want your mum Shy wants you to be alone Shy pushes your head down Shy tastes like a dull peach with no flavour Shy DOESN’T want anybody to notice you.
