Do you remember the times
When our friendship was at it's prime
We thought we were soul mates
But very different were our fates
None of us did any wrong at all
Except perhaps not giving a call
We have different friends now
And they're wonderful anyhow
Sometimes I wish I stuck around
Wish we didn't drift away and drown
Wish we could still talk the way we used to
Without recalling old times and feeling blue
Oh, I'm pretty sure I still love you
But you probably have no clue
Perhaps we were destined to be separated
And my efforts were too belated
But it's time for me to let you go
Let you travel, explore, learn, and grow
Our bond will remain as only a memory
As a distant daydream and sweet reverie

Recently, I visited a close friend I've known for 10 years. We drifted away during the pandemic, and for almost 2 years, we hardly talked to one another. But the second we started speaking, we clicked, it was like time hadn't passed at all and there was never a break in communication. We joked, laughed, talked with no filters. And yet, at the same time, something was missing, something had changed. There was no instant mind reading, and some part of our connection seemed to have faded away. As people, we were very different now. We had different hobbies, different likes and dislikes, different personalities. We'd each found a different best friend. I regret not making more efforts to stay in touch, but I also feel this was inevitable. As life goes on, people will come, and they will go. And that's alright. It was amazing while it lasted and I'll never forget our memories together.
