My friend once asked me,
What I would do first if the ground was crumbling beneath my feet and the walls surrounding me were caving in and I knew I wouldn't be making it out alive
What would I do first?
I would scream.
I would think of my mom and how I never told her enough times how much I loved her.
I would think of my grades and how all that time and effort didn't really matter.
I would cry knowing I'll never be able to hug my brothers again.
I would think of how I had never fallen in love.
I would laugh thinking of all the stupid stuff I had done.
I would remember getting my first day of high school, and how every teacher pronounced my name wrong but I didn't correct them once.
And then I would think I didn't even make it to graduation.
I would think of sneaking out and getting caught.
I would think of my dad telling me he was proud of me and that he knows I will do great things.
But I guess I will only be able to accomplish what I have up until today.
I would think of my best friend and pray that life would go easy on him, even though he could handle anything it would throw at him.
And then I would regret not telling you how I really feel because If you knew,
things could have been different.
But for now the ground I am standing on is perfectly still so for now I will keep all those things locked up and somewhere no one will every find them
my heart.
