My Father’s Side

by Jordan Lacey

(Oklahoma City, OK)

 

I disappeared from my

father’s side

re-appeared at my mother’s

side

My dad wants me back

come please

A fire started like

a huge cement wall it rose

then it all

changed

I was dancing

1        2        1        2

I miss a step

I fell

Wake                     WAKE

black as night

I ran

Stop

BANG

Then   time    stopped

I was flying in the sky

this is where I

will stay

‘til the end of time.
