"do you like it?" she asked me
"of course!"
I looked at the sheet of paper with pink crayon strewn all over
and some blue lines here and there
"is it pretty?"
"yes lily, it is very pretty"
her eyes lit up
she looked at me, smiled and got right back to her coloring
and my heart broke
for one day, that light will dim with the words of adolescence
this is really sad.
