You never expect it.
It's just background music, something you don't even notice, and the words and sounds just slip past as you focus on something else; on your drink, or your friends, or your book, or your body--
and then, suddenly you hear it.
It's that song. It jumps out at you, traps you in the memories forced to the front of your conciousness, because it's--
it's that song
from that time
and the memories fcking hurt, so you immediately cut off the music or cover your ears or talk so loud you don't have to listen.
But then you're stuck in the silence with the memories replaying behind your eyelids, and you will yourself not to cry.
Deep breaths.
In and out.
How could one song do this to you? (... You know why. It's because it's not just one song. It's memories and the person who made them for you, and every emotion they painted your heart with from then on.)
And the melody and all of it's shadows echo in your head.
So you excuse yourself, or put on the headphones again, or sit back and silence yourself.
(... or you quickly scribble down what your feeling -- or say, write a quote about it because you really need to vent right this moment --- because you need a quick distraction before you do something stupid)
and then
(you do something stupid)
you listen to the song,
and let yourself d r o w n in the memories it makes you relive.
...oh, you're in my veins
...and i
---cannot
---get you
....out.

In junior high,
there was a kid on my bus who would always run home as soon as the bus dropped him off.
We would laugh at him every day.
We didn't know that he ran because he wanted to make sure his sister hadn't killed herself while he was gone at school.
One day, he missed school. A week after, he was back.
He stopped running. </3

Creepy?
Have a history teacher try to explain this to you.
Abraham Lincoln was elected in Congress in
1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected in Congress in
1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected president in
1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected president in
1960.
The names Lincoln and Kennedy
both have seven letters.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the white house.
Both presidents were shot on a friday.
Both
presidents were shot in the head.
Lincoln's secretary was named
Kennedy.
Can you guess yet?
Kennedy's secretary was named
Lincoln.
Both were assisnated by Southerners,
both were succeeded by Southerners,
Both successors were named Johnson.
Lincoln's successor was born in
1808.
Kennedy's successor was born in
1908.
Lincoln's assinator was born in 1839,
While Kennedy's was born in 1939.
Both assassins were known by
three names.
Both names are composed of
15 letters.
It gets better;
Lincoln was shot in a theatre named Kennedy;
Kennedy was shot in a car named 'Lincoln'.
Booth ran from a theatre and was caught in a warehouse.
Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught in a theatre.
& here's the best part:
A week before Lincoln's assissnation, he was in Monroe, Maryland.
A week before Kennedy's assissnation, he was with
Marilyn Monroe.

My brother asking about my science work: Do you prefer rivers, lakes or oceans?
My answer: when you're drowning someone, it doesn't matter all three are great.

“
When you have been best friends with a person for so long, you start becoming that person.. You start talking like them, you start acting like them, saying the same jokes, and gesturing the same way. I picked up on a lot of Shayla's mannerisms, and noticed all the little things she did and vice versa.
We shared our bad experiences, our pet peeves, our clothes, our friends. We'd go on and on about our future and how our weddings would be and what our kids would look like and where we wanted to travel, past boyfriends, future husbands, etc. Our conversations were the best. We shared everything with each other. We were attached at the hip from the moment I moved to this little small town in Wisconsin and knew we both loved doing crazy things. Some people go through years of random friendships and never experience as close of a relationship as ours. She opened up her house and family to me. And I opened up my family and home to her. She became a sister to me. It's crazy how quickly we became best friends and crazier how quickly she was taken from us. She always had my back and was always that one phone call away or that walk down the street distance.. And one morning, I wasn't there to protect her, she was goone. I would give anything to go back to that morning and fix it. It's been 8 months, I lost my best friend and sister. Why did God give me the chance to become close to her again toward the end of her life? I don't know, but I am forever grateful that I had the opportunity to know her and share great memories with her. I still remember every little thing about her because, in a way, she is part of me. And I can still picture the car window rolled down, wind in our hair, belting I want crazy or crash my party from the top of our longs on our random cruises we'd take. She was a great person. I love her and I miss her so much.

This poem was written by an eight grade boy.
Our Generation
Our generation will be known for nothing
Never will anybody say,
We were the peak of mankind.
That is wrong, the truth is
Our generation was a failure.
Thinking that
We actually succeeded
Is a waste. And we know
Living only for money and power
Is the way to go.
Being loving, respectful, and kind
Is a dumb thing to do.
Forgetting about that time,
Will not be easy, but we will try.
Changing our world for the better
Is something we never did.
Giving up
Was how we handled our problems.
Working hard
Was a joke.
We knew that
People thought we couldn't come back.
That might be true,
Unless we turn things around.
(Read from the bottom to top now)

Do you wear dark glasses,
From which you see the world:
The sky is grey,
And your skin is grey,
And everything appears to you as
Nothing but
Grey,
Except,
You don’t really wear those dark glasses,
Because they don’t
Exist outside of metaphors?
