have you ever noticed how hard it is to talk to old friends sometimes?

have you ever noticed how hard it is to bring yourself to do those things you know you should do or talk about with someone, but maybe they're not the most comfortable things to do or talk about?

have you ever noticed how easy it is to just "go with the flow" because you're afraid of confrontation?

have you ever noticed how bad things seem to just keep piling on top of each other...

and they always come at same time?

have you ever noticed how important someone can be to you...

and then somehow they always slip away over time?

have you ever noticed how you don't realize how much something means to you until you lose it?
