it's to bright
February 28, 2019
“The sun…”
I’ve heard these words before
She looks at me one last time
Before a wave of shock runs through her
Her cold lifeless body falls into my hands
Her eyes roll back
Her skin turns to ice
Foam exudes from her mouth
She twitches in my hold
Arms and legs flailing
The tears never stop falling
I caress her cheek
I tell her it will be alright
My little sister
Why must the sun be so bright
Then maybe I could feel your warmth one last time
