Life goes on

it was bound to happen eventually

the death of a best friend

but now

now is a bad time

on hannukkah

what kind of a miracle is that?

now im miserable

i have no fuzzy confidant who will show up at my door

i never get a chance to say goodbye

and now

i have "Life Goes On" by the Beatles stuck in my head

they have a good point, though

na na na na

life does need to go on

despite our losses and failures

despite inevitable separation

you were a good friend

you had a long life

I'll miss you dearly.

    It's a band piece

    weird, I know

    it's from last year

    and we only played it in concert once

    but it means a lot to me

    it reminds me of a lot.

    How

    do others see me?

    Do they see a girl in gray cargo pants and light blue thermal quarter zip?

    Do they see a friend who loves them despite her crankiness?

    Do they see a quiet awkward girl who prefers books to people?
