Weightlessness by Katy

I was just along for the ride. We were all just along for the ride. Despite all of the unbearable fear and pressure pushing down on me, I found myself bearing it. I wanted that second of joy, of happiness, that seemed as though it wouldn’t end. The pain was temporary. I couldn’t wait to tell Megan about my ride.

Our family went out to eat with Sara, and Dave. I knew that despite the laughter and happiness, everyone in my family bore some sort of invisible pain, waiting for that moment of pure joy.
