Cartoon

By Natalia Coiro

 

I wish I was a cartoon

Dancing to my own theme tune

With no physics to tie me down

Full of fun just like a clown.

 

I could have a thousand lives

Impaled with a thousand knives

And still stand tall

And fight them all.

 

I wish I was a cartoon

As crazy as a loon

Your imagination’s the only wall

Your dreams, a power to rule them all.

 

 

Natalia is sixteen-years-old and lives in South Africa. She is British and American. She started writing poetry when she was in a place to help her with depression. She continues to write but has started to move to film to express herself.
