A New Chapter
By Ashley O’Hare
Turning the page
another chapter comes to a crashing halt.
You’ll turn the blame to me
because you’re too perfect to be at fault.
The innocent act was impressive-
I’ll stand and give a loud applause.
For two people
who have a stubborn streak
we were quick to accept
a future so bleak.
Such a shame that high school
is where we peaked.
