Memories
The Scare
feet aching
eyes searching
the man was following
into the park
through the alley
past the corner
towards your house
inside the store
Dukey
you hit your tail to my face, ouch!
pushing down your paws on me
stop your hurting me!
sitting on my belly
while I watch the Telly
purring while I pet
your mouth has become wet
Mom
caring what I do
hearing what I say
wishing for me to succeed
hoping for me every need
loving me with all her might
Jasmin and Alex
Grammar class was lonely
to watch for the clock
to draw in my notebook
to sleep on my desk
to listen without paying attention
These were all things I did when you were gone.
Johanna
I felt so small
you were the figure
and I was the shadow
hanging on your every move
idolizing your every step
hoping you cared for me
wishing for your respect
I thought you hung the moon
my only dream was to be you.
Dear Jacque,
Joey, picking the flowers, stealing them from the church. Hiding in the closet, not wanting to leave.Eating the chocolate that was not for us. I remember us chanting Joey's name over and over again on the loudspeaker, face confused the entire time. I remember that we had fun that day even though we were in Iowa.
I am going to miss you when I leave. I hope that we can still talk to each other as much as we do now; I hope that we will see each other often. I hope that we will still remain as close as we are now. I am missing you already, while I write this letter. Jacque, I hope we both do well in college, and I hope that we both experience everything that we want when we are there. Good luck
Love Erika,
