Dusting off the adorned cover
Leafing through the faded pages
Fond memories return to me
So many things I had forgotten
Come rushing back
Some offering smiles
Some offering tears.
I wrote this in May 1988
It’s still true,

Inside Me
By · 2 Comments
This poem “Inside Me” was written in May 1988
Mrs. Ney’s creative communications class
Deep inside me,
I feel an oncoming scream of frustration.
Bottled inside me,
Deep feelings for one who doesn’t know I care.
Sighing inside me,
Every time I pass him in the hall.
Crying inside me,
Knowing I could never tell him I care.
Dying inside me,
Knowing I’ll never have him.
