I’ll never forget the words he said to
me next he goes cab look at your legs
magic could use those again he says look
at your skateboard sit in the backseat
magic couldn’t ride it again magic
couldn’t ride with us tomorrow
you know harsh words from a buddy but
I’m glad he said it I wouldn’t give that
buddy that half handshake hug thing
don’t let’s call pry no I’m talking
about thanks dude he had my back then I
tell a little side story for two reasons
one what are the odds have a buddy tell
me look at my legs and my skateboard
just a month earlier that’s I’m about to
drive impaired and to better learn my
lesson there I also tell it cuz that’s a
friend
I don’t remember Brennan jumping in the
car though I do vaguely member driving
past or old high school coming down this
hill and stopping at a red light and I
think well that intersection alot
there’s a chi in the road saw I’m
turning right I’m turning left rights
home left’s party and Samoa and on that
night that’s all that it was but looking
back I see this is so much more took a
crossroads in life whichever way I had
too much of a choice I make you know
it’s gonna termini thing my life
Brennan’s life Evon around us their
lives too
and I specially those days of the
thought like that you know what had told
me what had happened I know why now
people really worried if I learned the
details I may give up I may quit
fighting you know it’s funny for my life
every single day but one day I started
asking questions and it was my mom who
was there reading my lips to answer them
the first question I asked why can I
move or it’s cat I’m really sorry you’re
paralyzed and there’s my mom tell me I
never walk again I’ll never run again
I’ll never skateboard again snowboard
again play hockey again and I’m thinking
I can’t even get out of bed today I even
want I don’t think about quitting again
but I never quit and I promise you I
never will just sick of someone someone
who loves you so much
someone you love so much it’s that
person who’s so special to you I think
of my sister Alice and I think of my
parents I think of my friends and I even
think of you
I’ve been laying in bed sometimes second
I can’t do this I can’t get through
today but I’m like a goner
because I’ve made a promise to a lot of
young people that I’ll never quit and
who knows maybe there’s some young
person out there who’s taken that as
inspiration and they’re not quitting
either so that’s the deal you know I
don’t quit you don’t quit
