I would be here again, I would question everything, I would miss the sound of traffic, I would hold his hand one last time, I would miss her so. I could be here again, I could feel so alone, I could not embrace a friend, Or stand close to strangers. I could stand up, I could feel content, I could want so badly to go to a funeral, I could breathe underwater. I would wear a mask, I would run from home, I would be alone again, I would say goodbye, I would watch my city burn. I would not leave the house, I would not leave this town, I would not stand with others, I would not see a friend, and I would not go home. One year ago today, I did not know: How much I could cry, How much I could take for granted, How much I had left to learn from my parents, Or that we could ignore the science, We would not stand together, I would live behind a mask, We could not stand together. I did not know that I was strong, that I was falling in love, that I had so much to learn, that I was already in love, that People make me feel alive. I should have held you closer.
