Like

by Ying Cen, 14

Like the blood rushing in my arteries,
Like the blue in my veins,
Like the way I speak of hope,
But like the way I lie in shame.

It's like the way I try to speak,
But no words ever come out.
It's much like a whisper,
But more of a shout.

Love is like a living thing,
That crawls within your heart.
It can turn you into a demon,
Or maybe a piece of art.

I only know what it's like,
But don't know what it is.
Whoever can define
A word such as this?

If love shall fall,
Then I shall cry.
If love shall end,
Well then so shall I.

RASH

by Pete Hautman
In the last years of the twenty-first century, 16-year old Bo is sentenced to a prison factory in the Arctic to make fast-food pizzas. His one hope of leaving the assembly line is to make the illegal prison football team.

Fly On The Wall

by E. Lockhart
Gretchen wishes that she was a fly on the wall in the boy’s locker room and her wish is granted.

 

by Sharon Draper
Fifteen-year old girls Amari, and Polly; one a slave, the other an indentured servant, escape their Carolina Plantation to try to reach the safety of Fort Mose a sanctuary for slaves.

Do you ever feel like you are the only one? The only one who feels like you do, who wants what you want, who thinks about what you think about. That is just how the teens in these books feel: Just Visiting This Planet . Maybe you can relate.
