Black and White

Everyday my routine is the same.

Wake Up.

Eat breakfast.

Get dressed.

Rush like hell to get to school because I spent too long getting dressed.

Arrive at school 5 minutes before class.

Meet my friends at our lockers.

Start my day.

Repeat.

That is how my days went. Everyday alongside my classmates. We were happy. We were young. Our parents sent us to the best school in the nation so we can get the best education. They want us to be happy and to not have to worry about anything. We had a bright future. We were going to make our parents proud.

Have you just now realized that I've been using past tense. Now you're wondering why, aren't you? I could try and tell you in a few simple words. But that's all they'll be is simple words.

So I won't do that because I was taught nothing is ever just Black and White.
