6. i want to be a doctor

i want to be a doctor
because of the ripped out pages
because of the stories that won't get told
the characters that will never grow up,
never get revenge, 
never forgive their fathers
because of cliffhangers 
and the lives that dangle off of them
because sometimes The End is more reassuring
than not knowing if there
will be another chapter
how tragic it is
to only see ends
to never know how your own story begins
