My name is Maria, when I was a child,  my parent always encouraged me to pursue what I love and not to back down. This sentence has inspired me for a long time. My childhood dream was to become a famous reporter like Nellie Bly, and I began to put her as my goal. However, when I grew up and left the United States, I discovered everything outside this sheltered environment was nothing like the inside.

In Ralph Fletcher’s “The Last Kiss,” the author and his parents become emotionally estranged as the age grows. They used to kiss every night, but as the main character grew up and his father stopped kissing him, they became distant. The author feels sad and misses the intimacy he once had. He feels lost and confused When he realizes their once close relationship has changed. My poems show the authors longing for the intimacy and love they once had, and feeling very sad when the author starts to distance themselves. It also shows that growing up can be tough and bring different emotions when relationships change.
