Somewhere Between
The Incessant Forwards
And The Friendships And The Calls
To Each Other Complaining About Crushes And
Bf/gf!! Somewhere Between The Phone Calls To Old
Friends And The ” I Miss You’s “, The “I Love You’s ” And
The ” What Are We Doing Tonight’s?” And Somewhere
Between All Of Th E Changing And Gr Ow I Ng ..
Somewhere Between The Classes And The Skipping
Classes .. And The Studying For Tests .. And The
Pretending To “Study” For Tests. .
And The Downright Not Studying For Tests ..
I Forgot — I Forgot What School Was All About.
Somewhere Between All The Appointments, Starbuck’s Coffee ,
And Mcdonald’s.. Paying Bills And Then Not Paying Bills ..
Making Plans Then Breaking Plans .. Appearing , Disappearing ,
Then Reappearing .. I Forgot — I Forgot What It Was Like To Cry.
I Forgot That Pretending To Be Happy Doesn’t Make You
Happy .. And That Pretending To
Be Smart Doesn’t Make You Smart .. I Forgot
That You Can’t Just Forget The Past In
Fear Of The Future.. I Forgot That You
Can’t Control Falling In Lo V E ..
And That You Can’t Make Yourself Fall In *Love*
.. I Learned That I Can Love.. I
Learned That It’s Okay To Mess Up..
And It’s Okay To Ask For Help!!! .. And It’s
Okay To Feel Like Crap .. I Learned It’s Okay To Complain
And Whine To All Your Friends For A Whole Day..
I Learned That Sometimes The Things You Want
Most You Just Can’t Have And The Things That
You Look For Are Right In Front Of You.
I Learned That The Greatest Thing About
School And Uni And The Working World,
It Isn’t About The Parties Or The
Drinking Or The H Ookups..
It’s The *Friendships*, Which Means Taking Chances.
I Learned That Sometimes The Things We Want To Forget
Are The Things Which We Most Need To Talk About ..
I Learned That Time And Love Can Heal All Things..
I Learned That Just When You Think It Can’t Get Worse – It Does!..
But With The Love And Support Of Friends – You Survive..
I’ve Learned That When You Start Feeling Bad
About L O S I N G! Touch And About Those That You’ve Lost!
They Too, Are Feeling The Same Way..
I Learned That Letters From Friends Are The
Most Important Things . And That Sending Cards To Your
Friends Makes You Feel Better! But, Basically, I Just Learned
That My Friends.. Both Old And New .. Are The Most Important
People To Me In The World And.. Without Them, I Wouldn’t Be Who
I Am Today..
So This Is A Thank You To All Of My Friends..
For Always Being There. And Even If We’re Not On Good Terms
Or We Have Lost Touch.. I Will Have An Unconditional
Love For You.. ~always And Forever~
