I can’t believe the miles
I’ve walked and ran
The laughs that healed my soul
The friends that held me as I cried
And how everything just
Flew right past me with no second look
The nights I stayed up until 4 am
Listening to music
Writing poems
Dreaming about you
Waiting for the future that I knew would be better
And it definitely is better than those lonely nights
But those nights I spent alone were the nights I became my truest self
I found my words
I found my desires
I found myself and I loved her and grew her
And before I could even think about it
Years passed
And I neglected her
I lost touch with her and couldn’t figure out why or how
And it hasn’t been until this night that I realize I need her more than ever
I hope she comes back
