Dear Love,
Where and when could I find you?  The real you, I mean.  They always tell me wait and you'll come but I have searched and waited for you but yet, I'm still alone.  Sometimes I just give up cause it just seems like another game to play and I'm tired of playing a game that never ends.  So if you receive this, be considerate to my precious heart and tell me where can I find you.

Youth create artwork at My Friend's Place through our Creative Arts Programs.  Students write poetry in our Writing Program conducted in collaboration with CalArts Community Arts Partnership (CAP).
The mission of My Friend's Place is to assist and inspire homeless youth to build self-sufficient lives.
