missing friend poster
missing person poster
a familiar face
Steven stares at it
this child has been missing for over thirty years
Steven only saw one photo of himself at this age
He remembers staring at it when he was three
He was held by someone, but her face had been taken out
He only saw her arm
His father got rid of that photograph
today Steven is staring at this missing person poster
it says this child was taken from his mother when he was three
He does not remember a mother
This poster makes him nervous
He tries to put it out of his mind
but it keeps calling out to him in his sleep
