Liv/Sam.

Liv.

People remark that everyone should go through the five stages of grief quickly. 

It took me nearly a century to make it to depression. Let alone acceptance. 

The email is anger. 

My blood is denial. 

Boiling. 

Tipping over the pot. 

Until it spills and burns the ground. 

I stand. Stretch my unused legs. Exit the room. To nowhere. 

Again again again. 

It's just a cycle of the five stages of grief.

Sam

I understand her. I think I do. 

She cries when she's angry. 

She laughs when she's sad. 

She was like me. 

Floating in water. 

Drowning. 

The stupid things that kids do. 

4:53 pm. 

That was so stupid. 

So stupid. 

Jumping. Falling. Drowning. Lights blared above but our eyes nearly closed. 

Collapsed. 

And then we weren't friends anymore.
