it's been tough these past few years
without you there
without your care
and now i'm just remembering it all
everything you ever showed me
you taught me to be who i am
and told me why a laugh was so important
so vital
yeah, you once fit me like a puzzle piece
but now you seem afraid of me
and i just want to see that childhood joy once more
a reminder of what innocence was like,
those late night chats
giggling about boys and the pain associated with unrequited puppy loves
you stood by as life passed on
but somehow we lost each other in the haze of high school
we lost our ability to be honest
our ability to call each other up,
both paralyzed by the fear that if we ever do reunite, we'll realize just how much we've changed
even when we promised we would always stay the same.
