Actor in Your Play
written by: Breanna Hobbs-Dunning
You’re an actor, my sweet boy.
And you played your role so well.
So well that I believed you for a few months.
I believed your lies.
When you told me you cared, when you said it was only me, that it was us against the world.
And as you sit there,
And learn your lines.
I realise,
That I no longer want to be in your play.
Breanna Hobbs-Dunning is a sixteen year old girl, who was originally born in Darwin, but is now living in Murray Bridge, SA. She attends year 11 at Murray Bridge High School. Breanna first took an interest in poems when she was at the age of fourteen, during one of her English classes. But she continues to write poems outside of school because it is a way to help her express her feelings and words she cannot speak out loud. Writing poems helped her more than the therapists and the doctors she seen did, because Breanna felt safer and more comfortable to open up about her own thoughts, feelings and found it easier putting the words onto her phone in notes.
