4 Relatable Sonnets For The Average Student

Trust me, you aren't the only one feeling what you're feeling.

I enjoy listening to music that makes me think.

Different songs trace back to a certain memory.

For suppressed and reminiscent thoughts, music is the link.

One simple tune helps bring my mind clarity.

I like to use the rhythm and the beat

to paint a picture in my mind.

The illustration is where the music and my thoughts meet.

It is the time where my imagination and my reality bind.

Like a certain scent, music reminds me

of things in the future, present, and past.

Reminders of what could’ve been, what is, and what could be.

It is the only time ideas and memories can last.

Music makes me think; it is a venereal disease.

It is so easy to catch, but it is so difficult to cease.


As I start to get ready for bed,

I think about all the time I spent

listening to the words people said,

trying to figure out what they meant.

I’d take part of mature conversation.

I’d listen in on to a funny story.

Trying to understand and make a relation,

I sit here learning all about their glory.

From hearing them I realize

conversation is a type of form

that opens people’s eyes

to new ideas; a calm before the storm.

As ideas rush, we then create.

So conversation is a form to concentrate.


Today marks a new chapter.

It is a time to restart.

A chance to fill it with new cheers and laughter.

It is a time to create new art.

With the opportunity to find a new muse,

I’ll fill it with persistence and motivation.

I’ll live my life in the way I so choose.

Making sure I have the right drive and dedication.

It is a time to prove people wrong.

A time to find myself within.

I must show that I can be strong.

And through it all, I know I will win.

Today I start brand-new.

Excited to see what my life will ensue.


The new year brings a new mindset.

I’ve thought about what I need to let go.

Now, there are surely things I’ll never forget.

But, there is something you all need to know.

I’m exhausted of following other people’s footsteps.

I detest myself for not having control.

It’s my turn to introduce myself to new doorsteps.

I’ll take up my own leadership role.

Although I may no longer always be here,

Things always turn out the right way.

Remember to not let the memories disappear,

But I mean if you so choose, do what you may.

I apologize if I wasn’t able to make things last.

It’s just time to leave some things in the past.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
