A lot of things can happen in a little time
A little amount of things can happen in a long time
All I gave myself was 7 minutes

I set a timer. 7 minutes left.
That’s it, 7 minutes

I clean my room in one
6 minutes left

I text everyone I love saying that I love them
Some answer
Some don’t
All they’ll see is that I’m offline anyways
5 minutes left

I leave my room and tell everyone I love them
They’re all confused but I’ve done it randomly before so they think nothing of it
4 minutes left

I go back to my room and open my computer. I type the entire time, notes to everyone
3 minutes left

I put it all into an email and schedule it to send in three minutes
2 minutes left

I get everything that I need, which is already in my room. I disassemble something
1 minute left

I lay down so that way I don’t fall and make a loud noise
The timer went off
I felt the blood pouring down my skin
I made sure that everyone knew it wasn’t their fault

I couldn’t handle things anymore
I grew tired
And now I get to relive my favorite moments of my life
In 7 minutes
