I wrote this because I was thinking about the past and all that has happend to me this year. It’s funny to think of the past. When everything was all good. Like before high school, ya know? I never had to worry about such serious things, I didn’t think so much about the future, or if I was even headed anywhere. But now it's like, I wish I could just stop thinking sometimes. Like its too much to think about and I wish my mind would slow down a bit. It’s hard to be care free and not think about what’s going to happen next. So here it is, I hope you like it;


I will never forget that one sunny afternoon
The wind blew
The sun shone
I peddled on home
From a day of adventures, that only the summer could bring
My skin was sticky
My hair plastered to the back of my neck
But I couldn’t stop thinking
“It doesn’t get any better than this”
My head tilted back
Eyes closed
Soaking up the sun
Living in the moment

I will never forget that one starry night
A gentle breeze blew
The moon illuminated the road
My legs peddled with ease
From a night filled with music
That only a block party could bring
My skin reflect the stars
My hair blew behind me
But I couldn’t stop thinking
“It doesn’t get better than this”
Head tilted back
Counting the constellations
Living in the moment

I will never forget that one tragic afternoon
A storm boomed
The lightning flashed
My mind spun
Driving in the car, restlessly
To the hospital
From a day filled with tragedy
That only suicide could bring
I picked at my skin
Nervously twisted my hair
But I couldn’t stop thinking
“It couldn’t get worse than this”
Head tilted back
Holding in tears
Wishing to live in the past
Dreams don't always have to exist while the sun's down and your eyes are shut.



Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.
