No Rewind

by Sara   Apr 12, 2006


Echoing through the hall a child's worse fear. The slamming of the door the sudden flood of tears. The engine of the truck slowly vibrating in your ears as it starts up. The squeal of tires knowing they might had finally had enough.
Lost, wanting to call someone, but who? You're worried your mom might wreck so what can you do? You stare at the phone and pray it doesn't ring. You hear stuff hitting on the wall knowing your dad is throwing things. You just keep thinking about school. Wanting to go there to get away from the bull.
You keep telling yourself that they don't mean what they say. That they are gonna be stuck with each other till the last day. Just rock back and forth. Keep thinking of something you love. Remember when you get older all of this you'll be free of.
The tears flow harder when you think of the good memories you all had. Why can't you go back and live those memories that aren't so sad? Why can't we freeze time when everything was okay. You wanna know why I cant? Because there wasn't a freaking okay day. All my life something's always has been wrong, but somehow we have always stayed strong. Don't let this all break us down now. We can live through this somehow.
