Did you go bad? Some things will never wash away.
“It is late now, I am a bit tired; the sky is irritated by stars… I love you, I love you, I love you…”

[maybe someone might disagree with me but that's something I think about charlie]
charlie was like an older brother to the dead poets, he always tried to hide his pain, he had to be strong for them, especially neil and todd (they never asked, but he felt like that. he was trying to protect and help them).
neil struggled every day between his father’s pressures and his true passion, acting.
todd lived in his brother’s shadow and had high expectations behind his back.
the poets thought charlie was the sun, they had seen him cry such little times that they struggled to remember them.
just as the sun, comes the time to set.
the night comes and there is only darkness, the room is silent.
charlie sometimes sobbed wrapped up tight under covers. he was tired of thinking about the life that he was supposed to have, tired of his parents who didn't consider him.
some of those nights were louder, cameron heard him crying, but he said nothing, knowing he wasn’t the person charlie needed.
in the morning charlie's light was shining again, just like the sun rising after a stormy night.
this is how a new day began.
