As some of you might know AIDS is the sixth leading cause of death in the world.But hat exactly is AIDS . It is known as Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, and is a disease that destroys the immune system in our body.See allot of people do not take this seriously and it is fatal , and it was my next assignment in acting for TV and film class. WE had two groups and we had to do a PSA in front of our school.We had a week to create a PS to present and we worked hard and creatively.When the day of presentation came we were ready we had our all black top and bottoms and a red ribbon on our arm . MY group didn't have to do much we just presented facts . And that might sound too simple and boring but its not only what your presenting its also how you present it.After the whole PSA was finished we all had a feel of relief and we dint care about if our presentation was the best but we cared about if anyone listened and learned from our message.This experience was a little easier than the PSA we previously did but the nerves were still crackling but it was more fun and interesting.
I have taken the time to write a poem about AIDS and i hope you like it.
'Living with AIDSl'
Why did this happen?
And what have i become?
Because of what I've done I now live in disgrace
Now every day at school people stare at me with disgusts
I can see the hate in there eyes
I can see it in there face
because I have AIDS
It was now i see my life
Starting to sink
But i cant shake the feeling
I can't help but to think
how this could have been avoided
If i had just used protection
I could still be health
And still would have showed affection
But thats not how it is
I am living with this infection
I look in the mirror
But i cant see my own reflection
I see a sick and dieing person
NO! it cant be me
How could this happen?
I was so happy
And young
But because of this virus
This disease
No its because of my carelessness
I will live my life with regret
But i will put all that aside
Live my life and get back my pride
I will no longer have nothing to hide
life is about making the right selections
But if your are going to have sex
Remember to always use protection
