By Vanessa C., Wrentham, MA

   i could feel yer person lying lonely in the meadow.

Long time gone it comes and goes.

Staring awe struck at cheap plastic

stickers of stars.

i remember the day i put them up for you.

Not ten minutes old and you'd found another

- attention span in its rapid decrease.

Once you laughed at the heavens symbolic

- vanity overriding Truth yet again.

And you think yer so clever and silly and free.

But i'm watching you still in the darkness.

And i'm seeing yer smile.

It's forced.
