How do you look your parents in the eyes
Knowing last night you took so much ****
In hopes of never waking up again?

How do you respond to your friends?
And loved ones?
When they say you light up a room
As you drown in guilt knowing every second
Spent in that moment, you wish it would end.

This is what you do.
Tell yourself these feelings will pass.
One day you will gaze upon the highway
Not imagining a tragic accident.
You will see the road in a brighter sense

You will close your eyes and not imagine an end.
I promise you.
