a blanket of warmth,\
|
cut up into pieces,\
|

comfort on all sides\
|
split the halves into two\
|

out there are monsters,\
|
that's quarters, or fourths,\
|

beneath I must hide
|
whichever you like to do
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
when darkness creeps in,\
|
numerator, at the top,\
|
||||||
security squandered\
|
tells how many you have got\
|
||||||
towards evil and horror,\
|
cupcakes, pies, or bicycles,\
|
||||||
my mind has wandered
|
maybe planes or big big yachts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
please, tuck me in,\
|
denominator, down the bottom,\
|
||||||
as snug as a bug\
|
divvying up the parts\
|
||||||
lest I fall victim,\
|
now you know division,\
|
||||||
to ungodly hug
|
they call you doctor smarts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
the hours are ticking,\
|
|
||||||
time slips away\
|
|
||||||
up rises sun's safety,\
|
|
||||||
to begin a new day
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
from goblins and ghouls,\
|
|
||||||
at once I am free\
|
|
||||||
to wish that tonight,\
|
|
||||||
they will hear my plea

A place I know is mine\
|
awaiting compleition...
|
||||||
Soft cushioned for retreat\
|
|
||||||
Where I can self enshrine\
|
|
||||||
Until refresh complete
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This sanctuary changed\
|
|
||||||
As my mind developed\
|
|

Now finding myself drained\
|
|
||||||
When by dark enveloped
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If it were but a beast\
|
|
||||||
A monster to be slain\
|
|
||||||
A hopeless fight at least\
|
|
||||||
Would comfort, though in vain
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Instead it's my own wit\
|
|
||||||
Besieged by thoughts that swarm\
|
|
||||||
To slip in endless pit\
|
|
||||||
Caught by this mental storm

'Meet me at the overpass,' I wrote. 'When the day comes.' I wanted to know so badly where I would end up. Would I be funny, pretty, sweet? Would my time be well spent? Would I make it out of this mess? Of course, I knew it was impossible. I'm only 17. I would have to wait like the rest of us.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

Just in case, I went. Down my well-trodden path, in this city of bustle. Grey buildings domineered, I looked up to them, fraught. There wasn't much to see here, unchanging day to day. I walked to the centre, heavy legs dangling as busy cars rushed over black nowhere roads. Alone, I was startled - a kind woman tapped my shoulder.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
'Pick yourself up,' she said, 'and dust yourself off. You'll be okay.'\
|
||||||
|
'How can you know?' I crumbled by her side.\
|
||||||
|
'I've been here before, things look up, I promise. Do you want to talk about it?'\
|
||||||
|
'No thanks, I'm alright.' My overfull skin tightened. 'I trust myself to find the way.'\
|
||||||
|
'I believe in you, she assured, her twinkling eyes gleaming.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I got up, smoothed my clothes, beginning the trek home. Warm leaves danced around me, brand new in the spring. I saw a butterfly, blue, fresh from cocoon's comfort. Black and white buildings seemed endless with possibility. I finished my journal entry: 'You weren't there, but I was. I will find my way.'

A stroll taken under deceptive sky\
|
||||||
|
How quickly it moved beyond overcast\
|
||||||
|
I'm glad it did, as it's the reason why\
|
||||||
|
I met you there, under the overpass
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I wake and want to see you every day\
|
||||||
|
Even though I fear this is but a farce\
|
||||||
|
Yet still joy and smiles it brings when I say\
|
||||||
|
I'll see you there, under the overpass
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We had a spark that at first seemed concrete\
|
||||||
|
Yet our time together has become sparce\
|
||||||
|
I have to hold hope, that again we'll meet\
|
||||||
|
If await you, under the overpass
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sorry I was blind, I now see the sign\
|
||||||
|
It seems that it's cues I struggle to parse\
|
||||||
|
I'll work to be better should stars align\
|
||||||
|
Meeting again, under the overpass
