Play Time Part 2

At the age of 10
I had an abundant amount of energy
I could never
be rid or get rid of it
there was just too much of it

At the age of 10
I was diagnosed with asthma
and Bronchitis
which explained my shortened breath
and restless sleep

At the age of 10
I would play tag
just like any other kid
but I had a secret

At the age of 10
I had lost my best friend
my closest friend
my brother

At the age of 10
Sean had died
and I was left alone

At the age of 10
I seemed normal
but I wasn’t
I was going insane
I was losing hope

At the age of 10
Play time began to lose its happiness
and it’s meaning

At the age of 10
My energy
began
to disappear
