The Fish International College Hong Kong, Ho, Alyssa - 11 As I swam in the Cool waters, Following the endless bridge, I start to see the Brilliant coral Reefs surrounding me. I could hear The cars roaring, I could hear people Chattering in Cantonese and Putonghua. Rising up to the surface, I could see the gigantic sky scrapers Towering above me, The colorful bright lights shining Through the waters, An artwork to admire. People dancing To the traditional Chinese music, An aura of excitement. Higher and higher, I could smell the Steamed dumplings. I could smell the Chinese buns. Everything was perfect up There. But me, I was just filled with Loneliness. All I ever wanted was to be Human. How happy they are, To have a family filled with joyfulness. I cried and cried that night, Will someone ever fulfill my impossible Dream?
