They write
As if the words won't
Fade
They write like they
Aren't just sixteen
They bend and snap
They close and open
They become more
As if bridges of their
Words connected them
And whisperd every word
They are the ones who
Cry past eleven
And open a door
Just to close it again
They've forgotten and gotten
The words they've traced
Everyday
Between it all, they still
Slip away
