Remember that day we talked.
You were right.
You know that blue-eyed kid who sits three seats back.
You will.
The stuff you're learning in chemistry.
It isn't really that important.
When you slipped on the ice in the parking lot.
No one saw.
That girl in the obituaries.
Remembers that you liked her dress.
God knows you deserve to go to Heaven.
Even though you forgot to pray.
When your dad yelled at you last night.
He didn't mean it.
The quarterback, #72.
Played his last game three days ago.
The Little Dipper.
Is a lot bigger than it looks.
Those "cool" jeans you saved up for.
Won't be cool after Christmas.
Your 18th birthday.
Will be your favorite.
I wish I could be there.
