“And I can hear the cries of the willow tree”

No, I’m not. If anything, I bear that feeling at myself, because even though I could have tried harder, I didn’t. I’m not sure why. I’d never held anything as precious in all my life, yet I didn’t go out of my way to preserve it. That’s not to say that I didn’t make it better while it was there, I just didn’t enlist the necessary people to make the reunion possible.

Perhaps I expected things to fall into place like they usually do. I’ve been relying on the strange luck that’s thrown things my way, and it decided not to let me see it through.

I’m wondering what it was that triggered it, though. Was it something a friend said? Perhaps it was something that a friend did. Or perhaps it was her plan all along. I’m sure I could think of a thousand reasons, and yet I’m still not sure if I want to know the answer. Is it because I’m scared of what it might be?

  1. If this is about who I think it’s about then I don’t know what to say. Although if it’s not about her I’m equally at a loss for words. Or it could be about another girl we both knew, or maybe not. I’m grasping at straws, you were listening to “Stairway.” I was listening to canon as well earlier, but I had to leave the room. “Forever Young” made me much too sad to stay.

  2. Yeah, I can’t bring myself to even press play. Let those songs lie undisturb and when i feel liek I am forgetting CTy, I can turn them on and remember. and cry. but then I am masochist.

    I don’t know who you mean, exept for the, sort of knowledge/suspicion, of a person I do not know at all or anything about exept that you used tolike her, which is to say this comment is sort of pointless, exept for the “I sort of know how you feel” part.

    I always assumed though that if you need a lot of effort to resurrect a relationship, then it might not be worth it. Because effort can be seen through and it is prrobably better to just let it go naturally. Then again, this is from a person who doesn’t answer emails from her grandparents, so take it with agrain of salt. or pepper. Pepper is tastier. But I think I should shut up now.
