Between Childhood and Life

Long dark lashes
and sparkling smiles
made Jenna a favorite
at Saturday night parties
where she learned
     about weed
          then speed
               and coke
               and crack
               and crank
          everything
               from acid
               to H

Finally even she realized
something was
               wrong

then rehab
          and sobriety

but the voices
never ceased

until 
New Year's Day

she stood
before the mirror

and ended
the pain

The lonely girl
