Nothing is better, Nothing is fixed. In fact, some things are worse.
But it is amazing what little things can do to restore hope to the heart.
Being reminded that an old friend is still a friend,
One single, wordless gesture.
One tiny
<3
Can lift the spirits, and make me feel like all is not lost.
Once, she dressed me up in her clothes, just to see me in something more daring than sweatshirts.
Once, she took my side and helped me win back a best friend.
Once, we laughed until we cried eating ice cream in the sun.
Once, we spent a whole night watching Disney, and playing video games.
Once, she took my hand and opened my eyes when I refused to see the truths.
Once, I was so mad at her I crashed a party, but I brought a gift.
I will always love that girl, and she will always inspire me.
My heart feels so much more at peace knowing that she has not forgotten, and is not gone from my life.
As for all the rest of it. I still have no idea what I'm doing. But I'm trying. Please know that I'm trying.
Do you hear that, world? I haven't given up yet!
