Him
I feel faint,
as I wait, as I pray
I wish he'll come to school
I woke up shivering
as I look at
the blue, cloudy night
Crickets sang, frogs danced
As the rain falls
Now in class
and he's not there
My heart is throbbing and I miss HIM

Top 1
Cold sweeps my skirt
Leaving me shivering
As I hear the faint voice
As Ma'am tells us the Top 10
And as I wait
I'm one of the ten people left standing
Shivering, shaking, nervous
I hear the voice say
"Top 1, Apple"
I'm shaken, I jolt
As cheers arouse, as claps surround me
Warmth starts within me

Nonsense
Noise shatters around me
Friends laugh, scream talk
Marco faces me
He talks
I do not hear what he says
I don't intend to listen
He's talking nonsense
He sees what I write
He laughs
A teacher speaks behind me
The stifling heat is choking me
I cross and uncross my legs
Marco repeats what I write
He's talking nonsense once again
Around me, claps arise
Patricia talks, Patricia laughs
I turn my head
And close my eyes
Darkness invades
Then, silence
I open my eyes
Noise, chatters, laughter and
Marco's nonsense
