Julien Ghouliance: Words


As I sat, you whispered,
"I hope you feel better."
What did you say?
Your words were suffocating.
I wasn't looking for comfort,
but your words were as loud
as a concert and as calming
as a fallen rainbow.

Julien Ghouliance has received honorable mention in this year's poetry competition, in the student category. He is 12 years old and in 7th grade at St. Gregory Hovsepian School, Pasadena, CA
