I recently read these beautiful poems and I wanted to share with you what they mean to me. In my interpretation, the first poem “Impassive” by Polina.
After checking the meaning of the word “impassive” and how can it be related to the poem. I concluded that the poem is about finding meaning in everything, even in the small, seemingly minor moments in life. Humans will eventually come to love and appreciate everything in their life.
The second poem “ childhood reflection” by Tobi Akinpelu.
The title says a lot about the poem, and what it means to me is childhood experiences and the difficulty of communicating and being understood when one is a child.
Let's start with a story, I remember my first year in uni, MTH class. I struggle with keeping up with the pace of the class and often ask questions that my lecturer finds unimportant. Suddenly my lecturer becomes frustrated with my questions and often discarded them in front of the entire class. Not that I'm confident enough to ask but when I do, they often discard it.
I feel embarrassed and discouraged. I feel like my lecturer doesn't understand or appreciate my own perspective or way of learning. I just feel like I was always being corrected and punished for not understanding things quickly enough, and wonder why I must suffer consequences for simply trying to learn.
Well, it cost me some grades. I just want someone to understand me
Hi Tobiloba, - wow, you captured the meaning of the poem Impassive perfectly. Indeed, as Juliana commented above, and you found the same, - it's about simple things and learning how to love them again, as we get older. But learning to love takes courage, so indeed as the line from poem goes - it is "a departure from the ordinary vector". The meaning for "Impassive" is lack of emotion, so what I tried to convey is how we can return back to our loving, open state and love the world again. Thank you for reading our work. :)

Very correct as well. But how does it relate to you?

For the first one. “ impassive”
Let me use a simple analogy,
coding requires practice over and over and it can be stressful.
All the late-night work that seems tiring will eventually pay off and you will eventually love what you did anyways.
I really don't know how to put this but I hope you get the analogy. 🤔
As childhood becomes a memory.
This moment is an oncoming memory.
So live in the moment and make good memories.
Because you may loose memory of what you do and it will be others memory.
The poem is great
So is this comment
