As I look over my first year of high school, all I can remember is this BURNING sadness. It throbs in my chest, robbing my lungs of air and causing my mind to slide in a downward spiral. I remember the yelling. I remember the panic. I remember the sorrow coursing through my veins, inching between my bones until it filled every last inch of me. I remember the cuts, most of all. But I also remember my friends. I remember Navleen. I remember Eunice. I remember Damien and Kylee I remember Kayleigh and Humera. I remember the jokes, the silly conversations, the laughter. I remember the stupidity that is the teenager's mind. It's one of our last shots at being kids. We want to take it. But... You Won't Let Us...
