the platonic debacle

4 years... no 4 and a half? my friend and confidante...

we were always doomed to this long goodbye. this twilight of friendship. i've been pulling away, taking you to shallow waters. soon there will be no place for you here. and this evasion, this feigned apathy and cool nature is my way of saying goodbye.

no harry and sally. never. as the phone calls and emails begin to dwindle. you will always be that friend who taught me. the one who walked with me all that time. and i'll always love you for that. i'll try to be graceful as i move away.

the days of late night coffee talks are ending. one day you will come over to my nest for a family dinner, we will reminisce about those good old days and make petty adult chitchat over dessert and coffee while the kids crawl around our feet.
