By Sunday -Erin Fletcher
On Friday, he was excited for the long weekend
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Friday he was excited for his skiing trip with friends
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Saturday he was skiing down mountains
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Saturday he was alive
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Friday I was excited for the long weekend
By Sunday I wasn’t.
On Friday I was thinking about long-term assignments
By Sunday I wasn’t.
On Saturday I was carefree
By Sunday I wasn’t.
On Saturday he was alive
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Friday we laughed
By Sunday we didn’t.
On Friday we were a whole class - of 2019
By Sunday we weren’t.
On Saturday our hearts were happy
By Sunday they weren’t.
On Saturday he was alive
By Sunday he wasn’t.
On Monday we sat in shock while people told us to come together
On Tuesday we cried while wanting to believe that we could come together
On Wednesday we tried to heal - together
On Thursday we mourned - together
By Friday he was in the ground - alone
And we weren’t.
By Sunday he wasn’t.
