  • Because

    Why did i skip class to go to the park?

    *because it is spring

    and i haven’t had time to rejoice her yet

    *because the semester is almost over

    and i have enough points for the grade

    *because i am tired and mourning a friend who left

    making me realize an empty space within me

    *because my dad is in the hospital

    *because i am sick of having to watch

    the people i love suffer

    *because i am mad

    and it isn’t fair

    *because i am hurting inside

    and i run away to be alone when that happens

    *because i don’t know how to deal with things publically

    *because it seemed like a good idea

    *because i needed time to be

    or else life becomes something that takes me

    instead of me taking it

    *because we all have our levels

    and we must find them and not overstep them

    because if we don’t we will wake up one day to find

    we don’t know how we got there

    and worse–we don’t know why we are there

    *because it was time to stop and sit in the sunshine
