The Price of Dawn

12:46 am

Payton,

Everyone here is a mess. Please, can’t you just wake up? I know, I know. That is one request of mine that can’t be filled. I’ve kept my promise to you though…I haven’t cried in front of your parents yet. It’s been hard at times, but I’ve stayed strong for them. I guess it’s true what people say: you don’t know how strong you are until being strong is the only thing you have.

Love,
Eddie
