Draft 2: 55 word essay.


As I pulled it from between the car seats I reconized the shape immediately. I would know that golden pressed shape anywhere. I went inside.
"Mom. Look" I hold it out.
"What is that?"
"A McNugget. I found it your car"
"But the family has been vegan for years..."
"Richard, come here now!" She yelled

Don't look under the bed

As I pulled it from between the car seats I reconized the shape immediately. I would know that golden pressed shape anywhere. It was a chicken McNugget. I went inside.
"Mom. Look" I hold out the nugget.
"What is that?"
"A McNugget. I found it your car"
"But the family has been vegan for years..."

What I Needed to Say- Draft 1

Always, your princess


When you tell me how cute I used to be
it hurts 
how I used to be your princess
but no longer seem to be

I wish you could see that 
I still am your princess
or at least that I want to be
I try so hard to be good to you
even when you're so cruel to me

I can't help that I've grown
but you still seem to blame me
and talk about how good things used to be
when you still thought of me as your princess
