16. A Make Believe Love / Her Man

She sits in her room,
Thinking of her man;
The man she loves so much.
Her room is covered with pictures
of her man,
So she'll never forget him.
She thinks of what they'll do
together, always having fun.
She closes her eyes and sees him;
she feels him.
She knows everything about him; her man
People try to tell her to think logically,
he will never be her man.
He doesn't know who she is,
Her pictures are (cut) out of magazines
When they are together, if it is at all,
it will be for the first time.
Because her man is part of her make believe love
(A love that can never happen because
he's famous and she's not.)

The Quest (Wizard of Earthsea, grade 10)

 A long journey with few rewards,
Travelling to places unknown>
Coming across hideous, dangerous,
humongous monters.
Never knowing your future, or perhaps
even the next step.
Not knowing what your destiny is or where
it is leading to
Many people just give up, and others
just die.
There is no way to escape your quest
Because your quest is your life.
The only definite thing is that when your quest is complete,
You're left with pride, honour, and a great
sense of accomplishment.
