The time moves faster than before. The sun is up. Sitting, waiting, my time is up. Over these few days, I’ve been feeling a few ways. Happy, sad, and a deep sadness like no other. And the only way it goes away is you. The only way I can’t go astray is you. The only…
Thrice. Thrice. Thrice I have seen her cry. My five-year-old eyes fixed on a screen. Wondering why smoke and fire came from the buildings.
