another death
Ariel died a few days ago… how many details did she see? How many did she miss? All snatched away so fast, and just when things were coming together she had her feet firmly on the ground and then just like that her ragged skate shoes left the pavement and she spun wildly through the air in a disastrous tangle of lost possibilities. She wrote in my yearbook “ I hope you have an awesome summer and I hope all your dreams come true” such poetic irony. Who will realize her dreams… maybe she gave them away to everyone else. Funny that she would have been so obsessed with the allure of death, such morbid curiosity ran in her veins, a dark desire to see through the glass. Why would she be so interested? And then snatched by death in such a way that she never knew its true face. So many horror movies and black songs running through her head… hmmm… she never knew it could be so simple….
