Crystal in the moonlight
Forms as ripples cascade from the center
Where I submerge myself -
Hair glimmering with the reflection of stars -
The water is cool and quaint
And the air silent other than
The crickets' conversations in the bushes -
You watch me as I disappear
And giggle when I splash my feet
So the water dances with me too -
Your eyes reflect me with a love and care
That I couldn't see through my own -
It's gentle in the water here -
You join me and we circle around
Gliding across each other's forms
Creating thin, clear trails of
Crystal in the moonlight

A dead past does not put a halt to a new future. A year later, Kaffy, a highly intelligent, creative, bookish, and preppy Nigerian-Canadian 15-year-old girl was released from juvenile prison. She was arrested and charged with petty theft and assault, and was sentenced to a year in prison. Her sentence was supposed to be 6 months for stealing a lollipop, a chocolate bar, a pack of playing cards, and a bag of Cheeto's cheesies from 7-Eleven, but she received another 6 months for kicking, punching, and hitting another female inmate across the face during an altercation in the canteen.
