Caryl-Anne Ok Poem
She loved the way the salty air
kissed her rosy cheeks,
She loved the way the warm
blankets kept her safe,
She loved the feeling of the
soapy bubbles against her skin,
She loved the sky just before
sunset,
The sound of the crickets as
they chirped around her,
The water rippling as she
kicked her feet in the puddle,
Her family,
Her friends,
The boy who would never know
she existed.
The boy who would never know
what she loved
Because even though she loved
a lot of things,
She couldn't love herself.

Caryl-Anne Ok Poem
The monsters came back,
They taunted her every night,
Telling her absurd things.
They made her think.
They whispered in her ear
Trying to lead her to do
something
She had tried so hard to
overcome.
This was a constant battle
Between her and the wicked.
And yet again,
She was left with nothing
In a dark room
Because the monsters won.
