The first thing I would tell you would have to be ‘I miss you’.

Whenever I was around you, I felt as if time wasn’t a problem until time became our biggest problem.

I feel as though time was our biggest enemy. If only I had, or you had all the time in the world to teach every student and hook them with your wise words.

To only have one conversation about what to do after I turn eighteen. It’d be much more useful then fifteen.

Even though I know turning eighteen doesn’t seem like much change but under the eyes of the country, 18 is to be considered an adult and I’m not sure how to feel about that.

I’m sure many relate which is why it’d be nice to speak to you.

Argue about how Sergio Ramos is overrated but there’s no arguing there.

Maybe the second thing I would tell you would have to be ‘I love you’.

My inspiration was my old soccer coach who passed away due to COVID. My teacher told us to write in our writing journals about a healing prescience or anything along the lines of that. The first thing/ person that popped up was my soccer coach.
