Favorite Quote:
"Ah, to be young and to feel love's keen sting." -Albus Dumbledore


Dressed in possibly the best
Ponytail hanging from side of my head
a scornful frown
and eyes full of rage
exasperated with the broken toys and
heart feeling caged
I was too young to know then
perhaps it wasn't me chocking myself
not the scraps of broken plastic,
neither pieces of fragile glass doll


The author's comments:
I was asked to tell something about my childhood and instead of simply explaining how my childhood was, I wrote this small poem in about five minutes to describe what I felt, my childhood was.
