Our friendship remains

Wind blows.
Leave fall.
Seasons change.


Our friendship remains.

A dear friend sent me the card a couple days ago. The comfort and familiarity came just in time.

I realize I could no longer contain it within, all to myself, the need to say a few words for the departure of a friend whom I hold very close to my heart.


Not until the day of your departure and the weeks that followed did I start to feel a very strong sense of loss. You probably can't imagine this because I didn't see it coming either...that life here felt very differently without you...that this city all of a sudden doesn't feel like home anymore. I tried to recall the days that I didnt have you in the picture...and I remember how unhappy I had been back then.
