Done
"Yeah I get it".
No you don't.
No, you don't!
Like fire
My temper
Everywhere.
I haven't been truly angry in a while
Not that I'll ever let you see.
Angry that he

Never again
I hate that all that's left
of your memory
is a couple of Polaroids
A couple of photos I snapped because I didn't know what else to take photos of
I hate that.
Nothing could ever capture your spirit

Clumsy
Clumsy
Clunky
I've had bad days but not like this
Why isn't it falling into place?
It feels like I'm forcing my fingers to move
And they're not in sync with my brain

Dancing
Two kids
The song
The beat
The rhythm
You know the rhythm, don't you?
Pulling you up
Pulling you to me
Out there
I know it's scary
Couldn't we let go and not care
Just for tonight?

Giddy
Giddy is the exhilaration
Thinking about you
Getting excited
For what, I don't know
Counting down the days until I can see you again
(Summer is hard)
Reading love stories
Listening to love songs

I cried
I cried.
I looked at the photos,
The Polaroids,
And I cried
And cried
And cried.
I couldn't feel anything.
My heart was bleeding
And I couldn't feel it.
I cried
Emotionless

18 days, 14 hours, and 53 minutes
I saw a photo of myself from freshman year
I didn’t love how I looked, cringed at it—a knee-jerk reaction to my ugly, green shoelaces—but not necessarily just because of my physical appearance

O Canada
O Canada
I am so sorry for what is going on
I apologize for a lot of people's actions
to specify, their stupid actions
O Canada
Vermont sends its condolences

Different at Night
Things sound different at midnight,
the dark is so much lighter,
the noises so much louder.
Every creak causes a jump.

I Just Want Something I Don't Want
There's a rope swing
all the way back in the woods.
I forgot it was there.
I took you there,
do you remember?
Yesterday we read quotes my mother kept from when my sister and I were little.

Dear Rigby
the road turns slow past the fields
stone crackles under the tires like a voice i forgot i missed
i lean forward in my seat holding my breath
because there you are
just past the trees

A Hug of People
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.
