Diana He via Mariya Yefremova

We survived the moon and now we only have the sun to reckon with.  If we cannot be stopped by the things that go bump in the night, hide under our beds, or live in our closets then what do we have to be afraid of?  Sure, we never closed our eyes, but that was not from fear of what might happen to us.  It was from fear of what might happen without us.  Call us young. Call us foolish.  Call us reckless. Call us witnesses.  We are the one standing with our eyes wide and our chests open ready to take on life the ways others are afraid of.  We saw the new day dawn while sitting on bank steps drinking cold coffee, only taking a moment to break our lips away from the small fires that we breathed in.  As the sky reddened to match our blood, we found new honesty on our lips and we were finally able to talk to each other the way we should.  I had to break away from the us we were to become the me again, but you all are in my heart and in my head.  When I lay this weary body down to rest, you will be the last of my thoughts and the first of my dreams.  Remember the night well, because we don't make memories, we make history and there's going to be a test."
