Teen magazines
Spread out on the desk
A half finished art-project
The neat bed
Un-slept in
The young man
On the floor that night
Dreams of jeers
Of cruel, mocking laughter
Dreams of the girl
Wonders why she isn't there
Why she hasn't come to save him
Cries out
But no one is there
They can't hear him
Teen magazines
Spread out on the floor
The girl in her bed
Dreams of love
Of the older boy
Who may never love her back
Dreams of a future
That will never come
Wonders if she'll ever move on
Why the rain keeps falling
Reaches out
But no one is there
She is alone
Teen magazines
Packed in a box
Put away
Tears on the gir
