Dear Bully,

Your mothers funeral was a week later.

I went.

For you.

You said you had never seen your father cry.

Not until then.

I found myself wishing I could take away the pain.

That with a snap of my fingers,

Everything would be fine.

And as I watched you fall to the ground in tears,

I knew I couldn't do it.

A slow eternity went past as you said your goodbyes.

Stopping to cry every once in a while,

As the crowd watched in pity.

The heartbreaking story of when

She taught you to ride a bike.

When she would read you bedtime story's when you were young

And kiss your forehead before you fell asleep.

When you ran out of story's,

You stood next to me.

I snapped my fingers to see if it would actually work.

I didn't.
