With one sentence
I've forgotten
that you were
my friend
...

Stevens
was my best friend.
You,
Nick,
...

Now it's too late.
Third term
No electives
You graduate in June
...

My god
it hurt so bad
I saw him hit you
I knew he was joking
...

I've
gotta
talk
to
...

brown hair
green eyes
braces on a crooked smile
your mom works on rescue flight at U of M
...

Every time I see you
something twists
and my throat closes
and my
...

I'm
sorry
dammit.
Believe
...

Time is running
out
for
us.
...

I look up at you
to see your beautiful eyes
Or laughing mouth
or just to
...

Why
are
you
being
...

This is how it should be
this is how we should be
a boy and a girl
her in love with you but wouldn't tell you
...

outside
standing on the warm grass
beneath the blazing sun
kids run and scream
...

wake up in the morning
And i raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
...

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home
...

Once upon a time
Not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks
...

if she doesn't want you,
can i
because
I need to love you
...

How does
it make
you feel
when I meet your eyes
...

Staring down a bullet
Ready to scream
fight
ready to die.
...

I know I'll regret this
I already am
Disappointment is the red paint
Anger is the yellow
...
