Anastasia Thomas, Tomorrow Never Comes

Who knew we would go from reading ANASTASIA THOMAS Dork Diaries to court papers The most unimaginable things in our mind now a reality

We used to watch Chicken Little till our eyes hung low, eating Fruit Smiles to replace green beans (Which by the way we love now)

We used to watch mom yell, and never see dad at all We used to go to grandma’s house and have the time of our lives

That never changed. except now we live there No mom and dad aren’t dead, you’ll see them tomorrow

Before tomorrow comes you’ll trade your Bratz mannequin for box braids and your princess car for a toyota

Your “I love you” ’s become nothing and your emotions are meaningless

Waiting on tomorrow You’ve lost your friends to their families, and yourself to hope

From five to seventeen, you’ve lied awake and wondered What it would take to have a place called home Don’t worry now child, you’ll know tomorrow You blink and time passes From head start to highschool You’re a senior By now you’ve learned None of it meant anything Although it may hurt, please understand

Tomorrow never comes
