There are many lessons in life that only time can teach you, like how much you love someone. It’s nearly impossible to know that, until you spend your days without them. And then there are those lessons that you can learn only through the beating of your heart, and through feeling such strong emotions that you can barely breathe. Then finally, the essence of time and the power of your heart crossing paths, and the only knowledge you’re left with is the realization that time is the one thing that keeps you from letting go. No, it’s never the embracing, or the kisses. Not the laughter or the tears, only time.
It’s a funny thing coming home. Looks the same. Sounds the same. Even smells the same. You realize the only thing that’s changed…is you.

I have never rung out any new year with a midnight kiss.
Neither have I.
Me either.
It’s my curse.
mine too. suck it nye.
same here. what’s wrong with me?
Me too, even the years I actually had a boyfriend. I could never quite get it together. Sigh.
I could sleep forever these days
Because in my dreams I see you again.

Bloc Party, Signs
God, last night I had the most amazing dream perfect dream about my ex in which things were really good between us. There are two things that suck about this.
1) Waking up this morning to find it had all been a dream.
2) Wanting to go back to that dream when I fall asleep tonight and knowing I can’t.
Wish you were here. Wish I was there. Wish it was different. Wish wishes came true. I’d wish you back.
You can reach me by sailboat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down slow, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don’t care how you get here, just- get here if you can.
