It feels strange to wake up knowing you won't be texting me,
Asking to play some random horror game,
Only for us to play something I chose instead.
If I had known this would happen,
I would have played whatever you wanted.
You were my first real friend,
And the last I feel I’ll ever have.
Nobody is capable of replacing you, my dearest friend.
I wish I had stayed awake until you fell asleep on those gaming nights.
Everything reminds me of you;
I don’t think I could ever forget.
You left a hollow place in my heart.
I wish I could have told you how much I love you,
And how much I miss you now.
That town became nothing without you.
I’m sorry for being selfish and leaving you alone at school.
No girl in the world was worth more than our friendship.
I always tried to seem "cooler" for you,
But now I know you liked me just as I was—awkward and insecure.
We grew up together;
I’ve never had times as good as the ones I had with you.
I will think of you whenever I see that anime
I recommended to you three years ago—
The one you never got around to watching.
