This song takes me back.
Due to circumstance beyond our control this will just have to do in lieu of conversation/letters/phone calls/texts. I don't think you'll much mind.
You were ingrained in my being. We mixed too hard, but then we never really contemplated separation, did we? I don't think we really thought about how life would provide the circumstances that would force us to really pull ourselves together and away from each other. We just were.
When I went to collect all my pieces to put myself together imagine my surprise when they weren't all there. Did I expect anything less? I guess I did. I thought that when the time came it would be fine, we would be fine, and there wouldn't be a hole in my life and heart in the shape of your smile or the size of a text message.
I miss you.
I miss the sound of your voice in my ear, and the feel of my phone going off at random hours, of the easy way my heart rested when we traded words. I miss knowing there was always someone in my corner. Boyfriends and girlfriends came and went, but we were the center that held.
Until we weren't.
I guess that's just part of growing up. It is what it is, and for the most part we moved on and past this. It's not a gaping wound, just an ache when the weather is right.
This song took me back to teenage you. To being thick as thieves. To being us.
"We ain't never getting older..."
