Lost

I believe

That everything in the universe

Has an opposite but equal

Double.

A counteract

A balancing factor.

Like how 1 has -1

And peanut butter has jelly

Like that.

I think

It may be true

With humans too.

I met this person

Once upon a time

And they reminded me so much of myself

And it was the most beautiful friendship I was ever lucky enough to be a part of.

And now

I think back

And I miss it

So much.

I miss the laughter

I miss the love

I miss the trust

I miss the balance

I miss the perfect imperfection

Of that perfectly imperfect

Friendship

That felt more like a bond

Connection

Than anything else.

So I went on

Shoved it to the back of my mind

Tried hard to forget about my now former-friend

Tried to ignore them

Where he's at

Where he wants to be

His friends

My friends

I try

To ignore it all.

I fail.

I latch onto every detail.

I can't help it.

  • Back

    And it's all back

    Full-fledged

    Only it's... worse?

    It's harder?

    And I am completely "fine"

    And "enjoying myself"

    And "fitting in".

    I take the homework home

    And complete it within half an hour.

  • Pavement

    I want to cross the street and have cars catapult around me

    Mass destruction like wouldn't you know it

    I want my steps to echo the pavement

    And for the world to swerve around me

    But I walk and nothing happens

  • Pet store

    I am such a horrible awful jerk

    I refuse pets

    I refuse animals

    Because I refuse to get another

    Because that feels like replacing her

    And so I won't do it

    But there are all these animals out there
