if i died tomorrow, the many poems stuck in my head would be left unwritten, and the lyrics hidden in my guitar would remain without a tune. the "i love you”s i carried to and from school would be covered in regret like thick dust, almost as heavy as the chains made of “i’m sorry”s concealed in side pockets of my backpack. the kisses I saved for the right moment would remain in my desk drawer, melting into a gooey mess of doubt and hesitations. if i died tomorrow, i would beg for more time, and for that I am ashamed.
