Hot tears, dripping down my face, eyes a leaking facet. I am crying. I never cry." The author included this to show a deeper meaning of the character, "i never cry", shows her crying is a rare thing for her. This also shows that this kind of situation that she's going through is something that she can't handle. "The dam open" that is metaphor, comparing her crying eyes to a dam opening, letting all her tears out. ]]> 2020-10-06 15:03:37 UTC https://padlet.com/masterythomasmccullough/sy7qtrt0es3mv8pk/wish/807028636 https://padlet.com/masterythomasmccullough/sy7qtrt0es3mv8pk/wish/807030896 " i'm dizzy from holding my breath for so long, maybe for year, And maybe something ugly, hidden deep inside me is threatening to erupt.

2. The author included this because she foreshadows on the day with the baby Alyssa, conflict because she is getting mad at the state because they either want her to get an abortion or put the baby up for adoption, and character development because it looks like she is starting to get anxiety from being a teenager and about her baby. She is talking to herself like a alone person breaking down feeling like they are alone in the world.]]> 2020-10-06 15:04:32 UTC https://padlet.com/masterythomasmccullough/sy7qtrt0es3mv8pk/wish/807032767 https://padlet.com/masterythomasmccullough/sy7qtrt0es3mv8pk/wish/807042640 Page 70 "There is a brief pause as the world comes crashing around em.
