Sister I love you, but only because I have to. That’s what momma told me, when I said I hate you. I hate the way you smile,
Cousin. Brother. Best friend. All one person and now he’s dead.
It’s a partly cloudy but terribly cold day. I’m running late for school and still have to scrape my truck windows of ice. I finally get there about five, maybe ten, minutes late to my U...

Waking up in darkness, the moon shining through my window… With tear filled eyes I sit up and remember what I was dreaming. His smiling face shining.
“Can you breathe?” the air is asking, as smoke fills my lungs. I am crouched under a leaf, the tears streaming down my face
Flowers bloom. Seasons change. Petals fall. Nothing’s the same. It’s been a while

This storm can’t take away my sorr… This rain can’t wash away my fears… I am scared of all tomorrows, I’m scared to wipe away my tears. I only need someone to listen,
Joy, light, happy moments, big smiles, comforting arms,
Exhausted, Drained, I have nothing left. No more strength to fight against… I’m sinking.
