Lines: The Girls Who Could
Born too short
Instead of three wishes
That was then, this is now
Hope was here

This first poem is called "The Girl Who Could Fly." The theme of this poems theme is that goals aren't something to wish for, it's something you earn. Some people need months or years worth of wishing and dreaming for hope or a goal. This girl, it all came to her without her doing anything. Instead of wishing for something or just hoping for it, that won't get you to your goal, this girl didn't do anything for her goal. There was nothing she learned along the way, and all of sudden, she was able to fly. That is not how life works. You need to work hard for dreams and learn things along the journey. I showed you this poem as a lesson, that dreams don't really come true when you dream them, you have to work for that dream.

I would basically say the main idea is work hard for your goals. You don't wish that you could make 500 shots in a whole basketball game, or wish you could go on the moon. You have to work hard for your goals. You don't just make a goal/wish and expect it to happen on they fly. That isn't how life work. Life is all about working hard, and meeting those goals by working for it and.

This poem is called "Confidence." It is about this ordinary guy who wants to take life more seriously. He wants to take things to the next level, but he just can't. He doesn't have the confidence to move on, and he has fear tat thing will get messed up. The theme is confidence. You need confidence in life at some point, not just to take things in life to the next level, but to make decisions for example. You need to have certainty and willingness to do certain things. That is how you get through life, so just have some confidence. You can't be on the side lines all the time or be nervous all the time, you need confidence in life to do certain things that everyone who is reading this will have to do. That is what the neon lights mean, that is the point where this guy feels uncertainty and the road is the pathway of life, and the lights are what is stoping him.

The main idea is basically confidence. You don't exceed or succeed in life if you always second guess yourself. Then that makes you seem unsure of yourself and then you can't make decisions. You need to make decisions in life and confidence is what gets you to that right decision. You can't let the neon lights stop you.
