It seems like millennia since it happens, and yet it seems like seconds. I don’t want to eat, or sleep, or do anything… I don’t want to think. I stare off into the air, devoid of thought. So full of grief and despair that I’m numb. Everything’s numb. I can’t feel anything anymore. I can’t smile… How can I enjoy life when she’s not here to smile with me? Kids shouldn’t die. I don’t even want to move anymore. How can she be gone? I just stumble through school now, and go to bed when I’m home. I don’t want to go out or hang with anyone anymore. I don’t want to think about it or anything else. Each "I'm sorry," or "It'll be okay," suffocates me. Everyone says they know how I feel but they don’t. Everyone says they’re sorry. Sorry won’t bring her back. They all just keep living and keep smiling, leaving me in the dust. She’s gone, I want to scream, I’m hurting and none of you care! I'm stuck in a room, screaming at the top of my lungs, but no one even looks up. It hurts so much that I can’t feel it, and that’s the worst pain of all.
