I'm Back

So after a while away from my blog and a few changes in peoples mind sets I am back.  I am currently working on a play for a creative writing project in English.  It has to be a "coming of age" story.  Well it is, but at what cost?  The main character, Pierre, dies.  He commits suicide at age 14 while he is in 8th grade.  This play is based upon a true story.  In eighth grade I almost succeeded with suicide, but didn't, thankfully. I will keep you posted with pieces of the play but for now here is the Prologue:




[Enter Chorus]
Chorus:
It all began when he was just a lad,
Intellectual; play just a tad.
His parents very heavy smokers.
Made fun of by peers who think they are jokers.
He muddles through life trying to escape.
The farthest he ever got was just broken drapes.
One day, to no surprise, he succeeded. He left nothing but a life, conceded.
And this play, explaining oh so little.
Few tried, failing, to get in the middle.
All he ever wanted was a friend.
Just a friend, could have kept him from the end.
[Exit]
