My name is sonia nkera

It’s not from sad books

Sonia Nkera, December 4, 2021

I wonder what the old me would say about who I am

I think she’d ask what happened to all those dreams

I wonder if she’d like this new world

I wonder if we’d be friends

She was so certain about so many things

All I have are questions

My heart is heavy thinking about how sad she’d be

Nothing is as she thought it’d be

I read this book when I was younger

They died at the end

I kept going back to read the end

I couldn’t believe it

It was so cruel yet it was a work of fiction

I kept thinking the writer could have chosen any ending they wanted

And they chose to kill them

It made me feel the kind of bad you can’t really describe

The old me remembers that feeling

She’d be sad to know I now feel like that on most nights

And it is not from reading sad books
