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.

Losing a Friend
Charley Tovar
Something bad has happened
All night I have been wandering
Through this endless night
Of dark clouds and crashing rain
Like a stray dog aimlessly walking empty streets
My mind has been consumed with guilt and despair
For the life that fell before me
His scared, helpless face etched into my head
My pounding heart keeping my muscles from moving
I was frozen
What more could I have done?
As the night grows restless
The clouds become darker and the rain falls faster
I cannot let my mind fall into the black abyss of deep sorrow
Otherwise my life will fall to
I’m in a tunnel
Deep in the long cavern of darkness
But I see a light up ahead
I must move on
I will miss him deeply
I will never forget him
But I must move on
