You left, because you had come.
You arrived where you belonged.
Five years ago, when we first met,
I did not know we would become the best of friends.
I did not know
I would feel like this.
In the evening we said goodbye, an unnameable feeling slowly rose in my heart.
When I got home I could not hold it in anymore - and so it burst.
That feeling which suffocated me could not be described with words.
Only with tears.
I have cried many times in my life.
Every time it has been difficult.
But ever since then, well into the next morning,
I would never again be the person I was that evening.
