Journal #2

I am from a world filled with noise,

Being whistled at,

Being yelled at,

Being talked to.

I am from a world of action,

From speeding cars,

To the running horses.

I am from a world of work,

From feeding the chickens,

To the chores of the house.

Journal #1

The girl in the photo just stares, wide-eyed, hair on end. She is two years old. She sits on her favorite chair with her favorite blanket. She lives in an old house with crumbling walls and bending floors. She can barely talk, unable to speak her undeveloped thoughts. She just blankly stares.
