Donna died at age 16 in 1976. There’s a huge collection of poetry she wrote before she died. This is one.
KEEP ON
A lonely girl
sits in her room –
late at night;
by herself,
silently smoking,
and thinking.
Thinking.
She listens to the night time sounds, as her legs curl together for warmth.
She is lonely.
Oh –
so lonely.
For she misses her loved one.
And she keeps on…
thinking.
D. Lehr 9/26/75
