This sets my heart to fluttering in my breast, for when I look on you a moment, then can I speak no more, my tongue falls silent, and at once a delicate flame courses beneath my skin, and with my eyes I see nothing, and my ears hum, and a cold sweat bathed me, and trembling seizes me all over, and I am paler than grass, and I feel near to death.
Sappho (6th century B.C.)
Fragment 2
Dear Ashley,
His name is Nate, I care for him a lot. He is really sweet and caring, he's like the older sibling I never had. I am really sad because he is dying just like his father did. Nate has a lot of medical problems, specifically heart problems and it is really bad. We met at Harmony Fest, I know it seems like a sketchy place to meet someone but it really isn't. I had bought cotton candy with Rain and needed a place to sit and there was room at his table. We instantly got along but soon went our different ways. Later that month at the fair we ran into each other again and swapped numbers, we have been friends ever since. Honestly, it feels like I have known him my whole life. We have only known each other for about a month but we already know like everything about each other. It's crazy how life works.
I really hate that he's in so much pain all the time, it makes me sad, I can't imagine him dying. Every time he doesn't reply to a text I get really worried and sad. He has been in and out of the hospital so much it worries me.
Then, there is Tristen... a pretty brown eyed boy.
