why did everything have to
turn to shit after it was good
for one second?
everything was in a blur,
in a confusing state of slow
motion.
caleb ran down the hall,
trying to push past the people,
trying to get to her.
the teachers pulled him awa
right as he was about to
reach virginia.
they kept shoving him back,
and when he peeked over
their shoulders,
she wasn't there.
but sierra wineman was,
holding tissues to her bloody
lip and nose.
