This poem has to have been my favorite. It really brings out the unsettling emotions everyone is feeling. More of Finn's thoughts in this poem. This poem is entitled 'Where Did She Go?'.
The weeks after the police investigated the snow outside Mr. Schue's were pure hell.
Everyone waited in hope,
Yet as time went by, even that started to dwindle.
Everyone lost faith after a certain amount of time.
And then, all anyone could ever think of is if where she was now, if she was happier.
Even though Finn began to lose hope, he still believed the girl he loved was alive.
Rachel was a fighter, and somewhere out there, she was begging to be let free.
He missed her.
He wanted to tell her he loved her
And kiss her just the way he used to.
He wanted to hold her in his arms
And bring her head close to his chest.
Finn wanted her to cheer him on at his football games.
He always loved seeing her bright smile in the crowd as she jumped up and down,
Cheering and congratulating his victory.
Why had he broken up with her?
He may have been hurting then, but he was over it now.
He just wanted her to come back.
Time continued to pass,
And the question on everyone's mind was the same:
Where did she go?
News reporters were constantly showing pictures of her,
Asking if anyone knew where seventeen-year-old Rachel Berry was,
Or if they knew anyone linked to her disappearance.
After three weeks,
The DNA tests came in.
The Berry's called in Finn, Burt, Carole, and Kurt,
Knowing how close they were to Rachel.
Officer Kennedy met with them and told them the news.
The blood in the snow matched Rachel's DNA sample.
Furthermore, they had done some extensive searching
And found some clothes believed to be hers,
Drenched in blood, along a trail in a forest in Dayton.
Farther along the trail, deeper in the woods, one of the search dogs found a finger.
Finn felt his heart drop as the news was shared with them.
Everyone was crying, and Finn could feel his own tears sliding down his cheek as well.
When Leroy asked what this meant,
Officer Kennedy replied saying that they were no longer working with the case
That she was alive, but that she had been murdered instead.
Everyone began to cry even more hysterically, wrapping each other in a tight embrace.
Finn cried the hardest. They were telling him that she was probably dead.
He'd never get to smell her strawberry shampoo again,
And never get to tell her 'I love you' or 'I'm sorry'.
He almost swore he heard Rachel crying with him.
Aw! Next poem will also be Finn's point of view. In fact, the next three will be from random character point of views. After that, Rachel's point of view will start returning occasionally as they all try to bring justice to Rachel's case. I hope you enjoyed! Please review, they are greatly encouraged and appreciated!
