I read the note for the last time, cringing at my unsubtle words.
There's a strangely comforting feeling
it's buried itself within me
I haven't got a chance to feel
normal or anything else
It's chased off my pains of life
and I can't think of anything
(but you)
don't even try to find me
I'll be crying in the wood
but promise me
(pinky promise)
that you'll never leave me behind
or make me left out
when you're running from the monsters
and fighting the rains.
I hold the letter once more in my hands, perhaps for the last time, and sigh. It's now or never, I think, tying the small, folded piece of paper to the slightly larger raft Greg made out of sticks for me. He was the one who suggested this in the first place, and it seems like a better idea than finding Beatrice and giving it to her.
