This is another draft of one of my English SAC's I will be writing in the near future, I only hope it would be as well written as it is here since I am not able to bring this draft in. Wish me luck and enjoy. Oh and also the Prompt for this piece is "I hated that place"
Edit: I don't actually hate this world, It is just that all the other prompts required me to watch a movie, so this was the easiest and most convenient.

My world is a simple place,
Full of life, vibrant and raging cars on the freeway.
Where synthetic faces are found in an abundance,
And superficial relationships with the word “I love you” counted more often than the air we breathe.
The modern day landscape is covered with tall sky scrapers towering like Everest,
And small parks conserving the past of the forgotten land.
The quiet oceans of people rushing in and out of shopping centres,
Finding something, anything to be fulfilled with a false sense of happiness.
Children crying out to their parents to update them with the latest game magazines,
And matured women scheduling their next beauty appointment in an attempt to find true beauty.
The routine of our humanity can be found anywhere and everywhere we look,
A student dropped of at school, a father going to work, a lover saying good bye.
The sound of music fills the breezy air as motor vehicles rush across what once a quiet street,
The orchestra of raging traffic found in the heart of Melbourne.
People screaming out loud trying to make their life pass by faster,
Trying to find a sense of worth within a dead world.
It all seems as though everything worked in perfect harmony just
Everything seems in perfect balance, the reality of a fake world,
If anything were to disturb the peace, it would simply be hung up and forgotten.
The voice of a child crying out for help, hopeless and lost,
The call of the distressed mother eagerly seeking Her child.
All of this just to bring it back to normal,
And what seemed to be the norm seems to be replica of a simply empty world.
It’s real, but it isn’t, and I can only say one thing,
I hated that place.
