GUTWRENCH

Hey

I hope this message finds you, wherever you are
It's been three years you know?
Feels like forever since we last met

Those winter days seemed so much brighter
With your laughter echoing in the air
The cold was less biting back then
With you by my side
I miss that warmth
That closeness we had

Remember when I missed that train
While going home from you?
I slipped on the snow
And fell on my ass pretty hard
Good times

Life has been a series of moments since then
There's this weird emptiness without you
We were tight, even if we lost touch
A few months after you left
All those memories are still with me
Like a mix of happy and sad tunes
Playing in the background all the time

I hold onto those moments
But thinking about them is painful sometimes
I'm left with this feeling of missing you
Missing our easy friendship
And the unspoken connection we had

I wonder how life has treated you
Got new friends, creating memories that top ours?
I hope so. But, selfishly, there's a part of me that wishes
You'd walk through the door
And we could pick up right where we left off
A part of me that wants you back more every day

If this is the last time I reach out
Know that you're missed
More than words can express
Life moves on, but the memories stick around
Like subtle shadows of a friendship that was once awesome
Take care, my friend, and may life treat you
With the kindness you deserve

Goodbye
