I wrote a goodbye letter for my art teacher who is leaving the school and I saw her response to it just a few minutes ago.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I  watch on my phone
On my chromebook
Anywhere I can see my school email
I forget for a while but the headache only returns hours later
I open my laptop and my head spins
I see a Notification by my email
My hand shakes as I open the email

My hands shakes
My head spins
My stomach churns
I read the words that she wrote
I can't look but I do
I told her a secret and I can't look
The words aren't bad but good
I sit in my chair as I almost pass out
