She wrote the first line
in her golden notebook
a present for her sixteenth birthday
thanking her mother for the gift
and her joy of moving from
childhood to adulthood
She wrote the second line
a week later
after seeing strange lights
in the sky above her house
and the faint buzzing sound
that she felt rather than heard
She wrote the third line
a week after that
concerned about the tall man
staring up at her window
dressed in black and wearing sunglasses
even though it was night-time
She wrote the fourth line
a day later
describing her strange dreams
and the sensation of floating
with wires taped to her body
in a pink mist
The fifth line
remains unwritten
In a scorched area
of the forest
The police found her clothes
neatly folded
with the golden notebook on top.
