K.E. Maynez. 11

The Middle

Kindness Lessons taught young While others galloped, Entwined in blissful ignorance, Each word pounds Deeper within character

Assumptions Accumulated daily, a present For me to open unexpectedly. Yet to ponder, was forbidden, Especially from the middle.

Ignored Outcasted, denied equality Expelled for false delinquency A midnight lamb hides, unknowingly deep within The den of wolves

Declining From smiling hills, Rolling towards bright suns, to an empty night. Engulfed in the whispers, haunted by the memories. Everlasting still un break able

Never, is the middle un mis
