Mundelein High School - Voices Magazine - 2020
This magazine is the culmination of hundreds of submissions from the students of Mundelein High School. Our editing staff spent the entire year choosing pieces to be published. Normally, we would also be publishing some of our school's phenomenal artwork as well, but due to the COVID-19 closure, we were not able to gather the artwork to vote on.

This is a photograph of me…
Charley Tovar
It was taken 7 days ago…
To the naked eye the photo is bursting with joy. Laughter. Happiness.
To someone else it is nothing but a memory. A frozen second out of hours of
uncomfort.
Streaks of white shoot across the picture.
From the sun dipping just below a building.
Frozen figures of ranging colors and heights and shapes
Standing on rows of silver
The green grass with carefully measured lines of white and yellow.
The endless blue sky stretching for miles
Populated with puffy clouds. Floating so calmly.
It’s a great day.
On the bottom left there is a boy.
You can’t see it, but his expression is filled with sorrow.
You can’t hear it, but his heart is beating pounding with anxiety.
You can’t feel it, but his presence brings nothing to anyone.
He is alone in the frozen frame.
