Ineed someone to talk to.

My swim team coach is leaving our team.1

I have been swimming for 4 years and he was my coach from the start. 2

He is switching to hauppauge because his wife is sick and he needs the money. He used to have a part time job at our school where our team practices. He was a construction worker but he keeps falling and getting hurt. Hes going to be the head coach there. 3

I'm mad, sad, scared, and hysterical. I'm everything. I thought he was going to coach us forever. Now he's leaving. Alot of thelittle kids are sad. i have to comfort them, and be strong.4

I recently switched to the more advanced swimmers lane so I'm not with Tom. yesterday was his last day. People were crying. I went home and cryed for hours. It was really sad. Every team wants our coach. I just, there is so much moreto say. I just cant put it into words because I'l cry. and i think crying is a sign of weakness. 5

I'l have no one to go to to say ive made J.O.s orto help with the older kids who hate me. No one to write my times down on my ribbons for me or to do team cheers with. All of those memories will be gone. I knew i would have to say goodby eventually but not so soon. i have tears streamming down my cheeks. Their salty. And wet. I need someone to talk to and i cant get in touch with my best friends. Ive never cried in front of them before. I dont like to cry. But i'l miss him alot. Now some other team will have him and i'm just sad because now i'l see him after i swim and he wont be cheering for me, he'll be cheering for someone else instead. and our other coach doesnt cheer. I just dont think i can handle it. 6

I wanst ready to let go. Now i have to.
