This past year has gone by really quickly.
I just hope I can make my summer last.
Next year I will go to a new High School.
I will make new friends and I’ll have a blast.
...

The loud bell sounds
And the cattle are let loose
A stampede of people
...

When someone you love dies
It is like someone ripped out your heart
Every single part
Of you is broken
...

A day in the future
A day in the sun
A day just to play and have some fun
...

When you lose your keys
When you hurt your knees
When the sun don't shine
When you wait in line
...

The candles have been lighted
The song has been sung
The funeral that we are attending
Is not the last to come
...

The delicate chilled surface indented as I took a bite
I felt a coolness ooze down my throat
Filled to capacity with nuts, sprinkles, and chocolate raisins
Oh! What delight!
...

Grief will hurt us all. It wont ever stop.
No matter who you are, you can feel grief.
Sometimes it hurts so bad that you can die
yourself, or at least feel close to dying.
