On My Last Night On Earth
On my last night on earth,
I will revisit every troubling memory,
every sour weekend,
and every sweet one too.
On my last night on earth,
I will compliment every person in the halls,
“I like your outfit”
“your hair fits your face so well”
“your eyes are so pretty”
My small cry for lighthearted remembrance.
On my last night on earth,
I will eat like a queen.
I will sit in the restaurant
too expensive for us
and order the whole menu.
On my last night on earth,
I will drive down to the police station
in a newly stolen car,
and shoot each pig square in the forehead.
On my last night on earth,
I will drive down to the cemetery
and cry at the grave
that holds the last tie I have to my culture,
my dad.
On my last night on earth,
I will climb onto the ledge
and swear on the stars,
that I once counted with my first love,
one last time.
On my last night on earth,
I will lay out each handwritten letter
for each person that affected my life.
I will draw a smile on the ones who saved it
and spit on the ones who ruined it
On my last night on earth,
I will call 911,
jump,
and set myself free.
