as she lies in the bed with the sound of her own breathing a little voice in her head keeps on repeating prepare my dear because things are about to change there s a tiny tap in the center of her window her best friend james says molly why don t we go as far away from this town as we can he continues my dad is a damn no good liar he told me my mom went to live up in the sky but when i look up all i see are stars from moving cars i push my insides outside living here for far too long you are my best part fresh start i m hoping that you ll come along so come along honey don t be scared i know just where she s hiding the answer s in this book that i ve been reading the same one she would read to me each night it s about a place at the bottom of the ocean she would always sigh how i wish that i could go there so let s hold our breath and sink into her arms because she didn t want to break him with the bad news she kissed him on his cheek and then continued go be with her i have to stay right here but you ll be missed my dear here comes your son do do do do here comes your son he isn t all right here comes your son do do do do here comes your son he isn t all right we ll fill our pockets up and sit down with everything we ve felt and seen and explore the mysteries of life and why it hurts to love and in a way the comfort that we re striving for in the end will be ignored i still think it s worth the risk even though the love and loss and tears and joy are just a different type of war it s true and everyone must leave but i think it s who you hold inside your heart that keeps you warm while you re gone away
