  The Golden Record

  

  By Jessievangee, Burlington, MA

  There are always those timeless songs that are head everywhere, but you can never remember the original version of the song, let alone the composer. This is often the case for songs from the early 19th and 20th centuries, particularly with artists who were outside the mold for the times, such as Af...

  Days Worth Living

  

  By Jessievangee, Burlington, MA

  I've been heartbroken I've been torn apart Into pieces He can't see them He can't see, how it hurts me How i ache inside It doesn't matter It doesn't affect me anymore How his glances aren't for me That magic we could have had Was wasted away These a...

  It Goes Both Ways...

  

  By Jessievangee, Burlington, MA

  I searched the racks in vain. “9, 12, 6, 6, 8, 4, 7, 9, 6, 6, 2, Closer…9, 10, 1. Finally!” I grabbed my spoils and rushed to the changing room to try on the new pair of jeans I found. Dark and flare cut, they weren’t the multicolored, skin tight skinny jeans popular at school, but they fit ...

  Open Our Eyes

  

  By Jessievangee, burlington, MA

  It was to be the trip of a lifetime. 10 days in Belize City, Belize, building homes and ministering to the residents. I know that to a lot of American teenagers, sleeping on a cement floor, finding mice in your luggage, 107 degree weather, having no proper mirror, or even a hot shower for ten days d...

  Things to Think About While Trying to Fall Asleep

  

  By Jessievangee, burlington, MA

  World hunger My school day How some things are meant to be What is going on when I’m not there The annoying thread on my comforter Why are people so awful to each other? Songs on my ipod How did I learn two languages? Math homework Life is too short The past can’t be changed The next ...

  An Ode to my Journal

  

  By Jessievangee, burlington, MA

  Journal sits unused Lying there. Its unwritten pages calling calmly to me. Write. Cover worn from countless times I’ve answered its call To write only to be answered With silence From the creative voice in my head. Its pages are dry leaves Crinkling gently from the turning It works l...
