It Will Be OK

By Matilda Flanagan (11 years old)

It will be OK

She will be OK

Hair isn’t everything

It will grow back

I can’t pretend everything is OK

When it’s not

She might not get better

I hate the color pink

And the ribbon that I now constantly see

I need her

She is everything to me

She can’t get out of bed

But soon she will walk

Not a lot but

At least she will walk

If I cry I will not stop

So don’t cry

I need to focus

But I can’t

I need her

What would I do without her

I love the rain because

We would listen to it

And fall asleep in my room

But now it’s pouring and I’m not sure

If I like it anymore
