A soggy teddy bear lay on the shoulder of the highway— head twisted, limbs askew, its damp fur clinging to gravel and its sightless eyes beseeching heaven. I watched from the backseat, wondering if it was dropped in sorrow or thrown in rage, or left behind after something that didn’t leave anything else. Two women in white nightgowns ran across their front lawn on a frosty full...

Hello! Old friend, You crossed my mind today, After decades of no thoughts of you. Today, I sat across a meeting I'd rather avoid; Then I thought of you. I wonder what happened to the life of us. We were there, then we weren't; Too absorbed by the happenings. We didn't remember to preserve our sight of each other. My old friend, I thought...

A voice recorded, soft but clear, Echoes pain we failed to hear. Hannah spoke from shadows deep, Of secrets buried none should keep. A hallway's whisper, locker stares, Unseen wounds and empty chairs. A photo passed, a cruel slight, Each reason dimmed another light.

I ache to touch their tilted chins, To feel the hush...

They came in packs, shoulders knotted with gym weight, smelling of Axe and iron, boys who scraped knuckles on lockers just to feel something slice. At lunch, they stalked the quad like wolves— every joke a blade, every girl a mirror they wanted to crack or crown. One leaned too long on the freshman in geometry, his eyes doing the talking his mouth was too...

In hallways hushed with painted lies, They glide like ghosts in silken skin— Their secrets shimmer in their eyes, Too delicate to hold within. Barby Doll smiles with perfect grace, Behind it waits a hungering heart, Each selfie frames a porcelain face While something deeper falls apart. They whisper sharp as winter wind, In circles cold as marbled stone, Each gaze a mirror trimmed in...

The black pen with black ink is running out, The paper on the desk is clean but creased. It must hurt to have been crumpled up and straightened out time after time again, Only to be used by someone else. One year, and I am an entirely new person. My tears have left...
