She came into the house
with a sneezing fit
achoo, achoo, achoo, achoo
face flushed then another sneeze
"Allergies," was all she said.
Started on her trip down here
achoo, achoo, achoo, achoo
memories of too many hurts,
loss of her mom, death of her dog
ostracized at the local high school
achoo, achoo, achoo, achoo
stopped sneezing as soon
as she was on the road
heading away from those
dark memories
back to the new world
she invented
where she was the star
newly created.
