Eighth Petal - Erin Lau
Erin Lau
Hi, I am Erin Lau from Year 11 and I enjoy visual arts, music and writing informally in poetry, as well as in my journal. “Eighth petal” is a song that I wrote during the online period of Hangzhou last academic year, expressing the “what ifs” of past events and the conclusion that such happenings cannot be changed. Even though the overall mood of the piece may seem melancholic, a sense of hope prevails throughout, leading to an important reminder of remembering the silver lining, especially during these unstable times.
