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
