The car spun 3 times

before crashing into the barricade.

Our car.

We were okay, me and my family.

We were unscathed.

Thank goodness.

It was all a blur.

It might as well have been a dream.

severus snape knew what always meant

he knew the weight of it

he understood it

"after all this time?"

"always."

always

something so powerful

with such weight

so profound

We didn't know the guy 

in the truck 

who's that guy? 

my sister asked, 

and I wondered if city people 

expected to know everyone 

they saw around town. 

Ice caps are melting,

According to the news,

Which I’ve stopped reading,

Because I don’t want to hear about the

Melting ice

Underneath the polar bears feet,

Not when I see enough

I wish I was bigger.

I wish I had a little bit more muscle.

I wish there was more between my skin and my bones,

That my ribs wouldn’t show when I take off my shirt,

That I wasn’t made of tissue paper.
 

Dear Mother, 

I have missed you these past few months. 

Where did you go? 

I see you standing there, torch held high, yet you do not answer my calls.
