"I Still Remember"
Kelly
Salem Lutheran School
St. Louis County, MO
It was the last time I saw her face
I was scared to go in and see her
She looked different
It just wasn’t right
Afraid to go in, so I never saw her again
I remember the car ride home
We both knew she wasn’t going to be okay
Stopped on the side of the road
We both cried
I was so young
Yet I still remember that night
