Nothing hurt my eyes any more
than seeing the
strongest girl I know
cry.
Then why wasn't I?
The golden light loomed over us
as we were told
our bedrooms could change
soon,
for a brick building in the city
was about to serve no more.
And my only bit of hope
balanced on the promise
my parents will do their very best
than seeing the
strongest girl I know
cry.
Then why wasn't I?
The golden light loomed over us
as we were told
our bedrooms could change
soon,
for a brick building in the city
was about to serve no more.
And my only bit of hope
balanced on the promise
my parents will do their very best

I explain my sister's reaction to learning we may have to move away.
I had already heard of the news from my parents, but they had told me not to say anything. My dad's workplace was closing, and my parents said they were going to do everything in their power to keep us in the same town.
