I saw the light:
I woke up the same as any other day,
Got dressed,
Made breakfast,
Outside, it wasn’t even grey.
Off to school,
Early like usual,
But something felt off,
Yet not like a cough.
After a class,
Or two,
I drink a glass,
And still, I feel a little bit blue.
I call my mom,
I act all calm,
All I wanted to do was cry,
But I kept cool and went with a lie.
Soon enough school was over,
I went home,
Found a three-leaf clover,
And was all alone.
After dinner we watch some tv,
My mom said I look tired as far as she could see.
Off to bed I go,
It took a while to fall asleep though.
“Oh, S..a I hope you’re okay”
Over the sirens, that’s all I hear them say.
All I’m thinking about is my sister,
About how much I’ll miss her.
Turns out that was not the last time I would see the light.
