Shattered Stars by The Typewriters 13
the sun will set
the stars will rise
i see them shattered in your eyes
hanging from a cliff
brink of death
you said "don't save me there's no hope left"
want to let you go
but hold you close
if the world ends i'll miss you the most

She shakes her head. It should stay in the past. Talking about it won't bring Kyle-it can't bring him back anyway. Just take my advice, okay? Asher Summers is a psychopath. A murderer. Stay. Away.
We walk into class. I look around, and wonder what exactly they're keeping from me.
Then I realise something and clench my fists.
I'm forgetting.
It's so wrong, but I'm slowly forgetting. I don't want to, but I can't stop myself.
Kayla, please.
I'm letting go.
