death
I hung up the phone with a force that startled me
 They asked me to stay, to talk about how I feel
 All I wanted was to get out of there
 I asked to go back to class
 They let me go without a second glance
 The way back to the room was blurted
 By way warred tears
 A staff member asked me what happened, 
 My emotions where ragged and torn
 I broke even more
 In a class where everyone sings
 You notice when someone is not
 When my friends turned to hug me
 It was all over, I broke down
 I couldn’t hold it anymore
 I was led to the hallway 
 Where three of my friends watched me cry
 That was the last time I cried 
 For my cousin Linda
