Sryan is also quite good at "showing off his language" in poetry. His main theme is loss and grief. So far he has wrote 4 poems and they're shown below.
'Teacher's Pet' - Centred around how difficult he found English back in school but he knew his teacher would never let him down and now look how good he is at poetry.
English is what I find the most difficult
But at least I know it'll give great life use
Having you teaching me is like a miracle
You're a great comedian for making elephant choose
Some people call me the teacher's pet
You are certainly not a dosser
We've had some good times, I will not forget
I find it boring but you try to make me an english master
You're nice, thin and very young
Without you, the school is no fun
It don't matter if I'm tired nor sleepy
However, you know I'm not trying to be weepy
You give me the key to success
Whether it is hard or boring
My behaviour's not the best
But I try my best while working
'Cá nDeachaigh Tú?' - Is é an téama is mó an dáin go bhfuil Sryan léiríonn cé mhéad misses sé a mhaimeo agus léiríonn a lán de na mothúcháin. The main theme of the poem is that Sryan is showing how much he misses his granny and shows a lot of emotions.
Cá ndeachaigh tú?
Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil grá agat dom
Féach ar sé i do shúile
Grá ar an dóigh leat póg dom
Ná habair aon bréaga
Abair go mbeimid le chéile
Tríd na laethanta stoirmiúil
Le chéile go deo
Feicfidh mé stanadh ar i do aghaidh
Gach ceann de na bronntanais a rachaidh mé
A bhfuil aon rud i gcomparáid duit
Ach a thaispeáint ní dhéanfaidh mé dearmad
Na hamanna a fuair mé a chaitheamh leat
English translation
Where did you go?
I know that you love me
See it in your eyes
Love the way you kiss me
Never tell no lies
Say we'll be together
Through the stormy days
Together forever
I'll gaze into your face
All of these gifts I get
Are nothing compared to you
Just to show I'll never forget
The times I got to spend with you
'Cancer is a Bitch' - Sryan writes down how angry he is towards cancer killing his granny, whom he loved so much. His point is shown in this poem.
Cancer is a bitch
Turns your life into a switch
Makes us wet the ground
And there is true love to be found
Her spirit flies away to heaven
And leaves us in deep depression
The clouds start crying
While we're all dying
Looking up at the sky
Dreaming will you come back someday
It is never too late to say goodbye
Even though you got away
'One Christmas' - Sryan shows one "terribly-good" December and emphasises how much pain his mother went through of missing her mother (Sryan's granny) and pregnancy. Loads of emotion is found in this poem
That one christmas was a success
Although it was never the best
I lie with my sobbing eyes heartbreaking
Whilst she lays in agony, call waiting
Pain runs through the atmosphere
My life gets controlled by fear
Like a darkroom where negatives have developed
My heart of stone starts travelling to heaven
Let it rain let it pour
Wash my pain out the door
The senior narrator gets abandoned and bereft
And stares up at the sky wondering how much time is left
'Rain Over Me' - Sryan shows how life just brings him down nowadays and feels like committing suicide because nothing is worthwhile after his nanny died.
Happiness is a treasure, to me these days
Every day passing by, is worthless since that August
Life is callous, like a stormy day
Suicidal thoughts were blank, when it was all flawless
Many promises and my heart, have been shattered
Malicious mankind, in such a big world
Been through disasters, like walking under a ladder
But this time, it's way much worse
Tears are words, the heart can't say
I get lost, inside my mind
But sometimes, you gotta pretend everything is okay
Even though there is no good in goodbye
'Snow' - Sryan recalls his memories of snowfall during his childhood in this sad poem.
Rising up from slumbers ready to tolerate life's dilemmas
Recalling back when I was just a kid, I was fearless
Hiking through the snow on glacial pavements
Participating with other youth and the childhood amazement
Watching the sky powder all Winter long over us
People with the flu and others saying what's the fuss
Skiing along the snow on frosty concrete
Feeling jovial and declare that life is complete
These days we don't see any winter wonderlands
Strolled on the beach, noticing the icy sands
Once I was ten years old lying in the snow
Throwing slush at a crowd putting on a show
We can all dream to have a time like this again
Pray to god saying a prayer, Amen
I felt once I was in an undiscovered place called Paradise
But now all we suffer is prevailing ice
