So, this is just a mini-project that I had to do last year when I did "The Outsiders" as a novel study. I was searching through all my last-year work, and found this, and thought I should post it. Hope y'all like it :) If I get good reviews, I'll write some for the other Greasers as well.

Johnny Cade

All my life, I've been neglected

With no one there for me.

But with the gang I'm accepted

They hear my silent pleas.

I have a friend named Ponyboy

We get along quite well.

Dally is easy to annoy,

but he's gallant, as well.

As I lie in this hospital,

memories rushing back,

I recalled that it took little

To break my fragile back.

They say the innocent don't last

How in time we're the same.

But Pony, as I learned quite fast,

Will not fall for those games.

I need to get this through to him

Before my time gets old

So slowly my head turns to him

"Stay gold, Pony. Stay Gold".

Well, thanks for reading, and please review!
