You've got a piece of me...

And so it goes. The stage has nearly been set. The soldier bears arms, and he knows that a war with the heart is never easily won. The only way out, is through. Ignoring each other won't make the pain disappear. Maybe I was wrong for telling you goodbye, maybe I was wrong for trying to pick a fight. Perhaps it was something we needed to experience. I guess we'll never truly know, and now all I can do is find solace in the knowledge that no love between friends is bigger than the one which is given away, torn apart, and yet still it remains.

It's that time of year when things start growing wild and love can be found underneath the stars. We all want to lose ourselves in another person. To believe that life is transcendent and eternal. Sometimes I think they were right putting love in books. Perhaps it can't live anywhere else. As I reminisce about all the times we spent together, I finally feel an overwhelming sense of calm. Because I can honestly say that I'm certain there was a reason for everything that happened that day.

They lived these extraordinary lives that can never be lived again, and in the living of them, they gave me a story like no other. Profound, beautiful, powerful, passionate, deeply hilarious and ultimately unique. Some people are meant to be together forever, sometimes they just get lost along the way.
