HARRY POTTER AND THE ORPHAN'S LETTER - Open Letter

Dearest Harry Potter,

I hope this letter finds you at the Great Hall
Filling up your glass with Pumpkin Juice and drinking it all.
I'm eleven, and waiting for my Hogwarts letter
I know, after coming to Hogwarts, my life will get better.

My mommy and daddy died long back
The walls of the orphanage was all I had.
But, reading about you, I can hope now
My life will get better, I know it somehow.

I can see myself making friends like Hermione and Ron
And getting sorted into Gryffindorby the Sorting Hat I'll don
I'll win House points for Gryffindor and make them so proud
I'll even pay attention at Potions, even though it's so bad.

I hope I'll meet you when I come to Hogwarts
Can you please reply to my letter afterwards?
I'm now sending this letter through an owl
I hope it reaches you in the Great Hall.

Yours lovingly
A lonely orphan

SCHIZOPHRENIA - A poem

Darkness surrounds me, impenetratable
My thoughts suffocate me, unbreathable.
Voices in my head, STOP IT!
Wisps of people walking by, GO AWAY!

What's happening to me? Oh, what's happening?
Someone stop them! They are always talking!
Are they ghosts? Are they spirits?
Why do I see them? Am I cursed?

I see my family, frightened
I see my friends, afraid.
Shut in a room, crying
I always hear them, talking and laughing.

I have lost the people I loved
Chained away like an animal and shunned.
A bone-deep loneliness surrounds me
Now, only the voices keep me company.
