At first it was hard to concentrate. I could't keep a straight face. Laughing always comes first when you stare at someone for a long period of time. Then I was laughing because everyone else was laughing. It's a weird feeling to have to look ints someones eyes and everyone was together in a state of being very uncomfortable. When i finally was able to stop laughing,, i found myself thinking back to the past summer. It was a certain point in time, not just the entire summer. I thought back to when i last saw my grandfather. All I thought about was the softness of his hands and holding them while he lay in bed, not really moving. Having to grab them so he could feel me there with him. Because of this, i started to cry. Just a single tear. Then that was it. I held onto that emotion for awhile and everything else just disappeared. I looked into my partners eyes, but all i saw were my grandfather's hand. Then i started to hear my heartbeat and my breathing. Was it too loud? Could anyone else hear? Towards the end I really wanted to look away.
Writing Your Name:
At first I was trying to go really slowly to last the full five minutes but it finished within about a minute. I started to trace my name over and over. My hand started to hurt but I kept tracing my name, not picking yup the pen or switching hands. I started to hate my name for being so long.
