I remember being made to write something in year 9. And hating the whole business. Recently as part of a course I&#39;m taking, I learned about the &quot;Zone of proximal development&quot;. So the content needs to be relevant to the learner at the right time, for learning to happen. It would seem the time is now right for me and reading poetry. </p> <p>new descriptives I came up with in the last few days are:<br /> raw. intense.<br /> Next instalment? </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/im-hiding-from-you-in-plain-sight#post-289819 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 00:16:17 +0000 FrysTheLimit 289819@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>i&#39;m stuck in a skin that’s not mine<br /> drowning in me<br /> all my thoughts trapped<br /> i need to get out<br /> no air no breath</p> <p>a struggle for me<br /> where have i gone?<br /> i&#39;m in here<br /> underneath me<br /> cant breathe<br /> cant let go<br /> held straightjacket tight</p> <p>its a cage of emotion<br /> keeping me in<br /> suppressing anger<br /> despair<br /> coating it all with a gloss<br /> that wont break<br /> a filter that allows only hate</p> <p>can’t you see me?<br /> I’m beating the walls<br /> i need to get out<br /> i cant breathe<br /> this is false<br /> its not real</p> <p>outside is calm<br /> a lie<br /> i&#39;m in here<br /> screaming for freedom<br /> let me go<br /> get me out<br /> help me<br /> please </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/im-hiding-from-you-in-plain-sight#post-289671 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:32:20 +0000 Rose 289671@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>Gut-wrenching.
