Sometimes

Sometimes, I cry;

Sometimes, I cry because it hurts;

Sometimes, I cry because it hurts; Simon dies.

Sometimes, I cry because it hurts; Simon always dies.

Sometimes, I cry because it hurts a lot; Simon always dies.

Sometimes, because it hurts a lot, sometimes I cry; Simon always dies.

Sometimes, some independent clauses are always true, sometimes!

Sometimes, some independent clauses are not always true, sometimes!

Sometimes, some compound complex clauses are always true too, sometimes.

Sometimes they’re not!

I failed my little dog.

Now, I remember how, over two months ago Simon slid off the bed in the bedroom,

crawled down the long hallway, ended up at the foot of my chair in the living room because I

had fallen asleep and failed him. He didn’t deserve to die yet!
