I wrote a song about you, and I thought I'd always feel the way I did when I wrote that song.
But now I don't, and it's just...strange.
You didn't do anyhting to me. You're still the same person you always were.
Maybe I'm the different one.
Now I know I wasn't in love.
It was just a crush.
A passing crush.
I feel sad talking like that about you.
But it's true.
I wrote a song about you months ago, on June 8th, before I went away to camp and it changed my life, before I started 7th grade.
I thought I'd always feel the way I did when I wrote that song.
But now I don't.
Now I've changed.
Now I am a new person--
well, a different version of me.
And that's okay.
I wrote a song about you four months ago.
I called it "Drifting Away."
Now, I am no longer drifting.
My feet are planted firmly on the ground.
I know who I am.
I can do this.
I am happy.
(this isn't exactly a poem, kind of just a jumble of mixed emotions, but you can think of it whatever way you like)

when you talked to me
when they talked to you
when we stood with them
and their thinning perfume
their black backpacks
their straightened hair
their plans of the ride home.

i have believed
it will not bite back
that it will not feel the roaring rush
of danger in what is safe.

a letter to myself at the end of 2024
So many times you will see
someone on the street who you will never meet
again, and believe you could fall in love.
You will look back, and they will not be looking
at you.
A few times you will think
