Wings

Just when I thought I could get away from everything at school
Just when I needed not to think about it most
We talk about it in English
Talk about how Hemingway was a manic depressive
Sharing personal stories and stuff like that
It just stabed me like a huge iceburg
Spreading coldness all around
Just wanting to hide my face from everything
They laugh
Cuz they don't understand
Laugh cuz i dont even know why
I just sit there
Turn my head and look at my friend
My eyes shooting sadness
She gives me a look like it'll be okay
Talking about how Hemmingway commited suiside
"Why would anyone do that"
I hear them say
I thought I could escape there
I thought I would only have to face it outside of school
Thought that she'll always be in the back of my mind
I will always worry about her
All the time
Like a mary-go-round
Spinning but always coming back
Always passing the same place
It hits me
Like an arrow
Saying don't forget
When I don't need anymore reminders
Watching them so carlessly and cluelessly talking about this
Something that is the bigest thing in my life
Something they'll probly never have to face
She catches my eye again
Her gaze slowly melting away the ice
And brining me out of the cold
And it hits me again
Even harder
Like a double headed arrow
Peircing my heart
And mind at the same time
It hits me
This time a reminder that I needed
Something my friends won't let me forget
That they're there for me
Even if they don't understand
Even if they don't get it
They are there
Always there
Always reminding me that
I don't always have to face things alone
That they will lift the pain off my shoulders
Releiving me of so much weight
Weight that has collected for years and years
Even if it's only for a few minutes
They're the ones that help me fly
Fly away from my troubles
Not forgeting
Not egnoring
Just flying
Flying far away
Without my feet even leaving the ground
They mend my broken wings
And try to peice together
How it once was
How it was when it all fit together
