I had never given much thought to the subject. I was intrigued by it, but only because no one understood it. Maybe it was for the best.
As I grew up, I found out life is relative. There isn’t a set amount of time that it’s lived for. I decided to make the most of mine. I played with my dog, Archie, my entire childhood.

My palms felt sticky, and I just knew that the entire class could see my heart as it was about to hop from the walls that kept it safe. I prayed that I would not forget the lines as I recited The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost. In sixth grade, reading, writing, and I started a relationship. Today, we have yet to break up.…

I wanted it to be very attention grabbing with a twist, but I also wanted it to be very emotional.…
