The lying game


One day I will be the one standing
I will pull my wings apart
I will be the one dancing

You will see what I have to show
I will be the star
And you will be watching

But today I am here and you are there
I lay in the dirt dreaming about up there

See you there….. is that me?
     
          My poem is about my character Emma and how she dreams about being someone else and different and so far in the book she sees herself in college far away living life. But until then she is in a foster home. She is stuck in Vegas in the city of lights and she just wants to be a star and then there is this one moment in the book were she sees a picture of her but it isn’t her she is confused and frustrated I am interested and excited to see what comes next.

  1. I liked your entry a lot, specifically your poem because before even having to read your summary on it I was able to think about what it was on. I think you did a great job on reflecting how Emma felt in your poem. Good Job!
