Addiction

I’m sitting with my friends

I can’t breathe

I’m fighting for air

I got to remember inhale and exhale

They look at me with worried expressions when my face starts to turn bright red

I still can’t breathe

I have an addiction to laughing,

Laughing high, low, long, short, uncontrollably, laughing until my hearts content

Tattoo

“Do you do Tattoos?” asked a young man

“Yes, I do.” Said an older man that owned the tattoo shop “You want a tattoo?”  “Trying to look like a man?”

The young man shuffled his feet, looked down and said “yes, sir” with embarrassment.  

“Well, then come on in here lad.” Said the older man.

O Captain, My Captain:

This letter is to explain why I think you should let me live, I am currently 16 and in grade.11, I have a  big family back home that needs me to live and provide for them. I have not done many things in my life, I have a job at the movie theater in town, I volunteer at many different functions in my home town, and in my community. In my life I want to go to college, university, and have a family. Before I have a family I want to be financially supported which means that I need to live to get a good job. I also want to travel the world, and I can’t travel the world if I’m dead. So please let me live and I will be very awesome at living life! But I think that Rebecca Allies and Luke Richards should die because they are an embarrassment to nature and will go no where in life.

Sincerely,

Keisha Kruger
