it was tuesday when our physics teacher told us you weren't coming back anymore. "what?", i said. i didn't hear him right, i convinced myself. they went on talking about the dates and funerals and wakes but i didn't hear a word. all i heard was the violent beating of my heart and the rhythmic pounding of my head and how i never, ever wanted to feel this way again. and i wondered, if they knew, that they'd have to bury me soon, too.
