Charlie's Last Letter

(Let's drive)

I don't know if I will have the time to write any more letters
Because I might be too busy trying to participate
So, if this does end up being the last letter
I just want you to know that I was in a bad place before I started high school
And you helped me
Even if you didn't know what I was talking about
Or know someone who's gone through it
It made me not feel alone
Because I know there are people who say all of these things don't happen
And there are people who forget what it's like to be 16 when they turn 17
I know these will all be stories someday
And our pictures will become old photographs
And we'll all become somebody's mom or dad
But right now, these moments are not stories
This is happening
I am here
And I am looking at her
And she is so beautiful
I can see it
This one moment when you know you're not a sad story
You are alive
And you stand up and see the lights on buildings
And everything that makes you wonder
And you are listening to that song on that drive
With the people you love most in this world
And in this moment, I swear...
We are infinite.
