2nd place
Ivy Tech had a poetry contest. i picked a couple random poems and e-mailed them in.
got an e-mail today saying i won 2nd place.
The rain is darkening my shirt
The soft petals drifting down
I am silent
But the grass is moving around
The people passing
Do not see me
Please press against me
To see if I am real
.. ..
And they don’t even know
That I have no place to go
That I am lost
With fear hiding in
My placid face
.. ..
And they don’t even know
That I have no place to go
Home is far
And rest is lying
Farther still
