first school dance

first concert

first car

first date


coming out

winning mock trial state competitions

racing at cross country regionals

applying to colleges

graduation


middle and high school milestones

teenage milestones

life milestones


she was always there

she did it all with me


she was there for every night spent crying in the basement

every morning spent preparing to pretend

every afternoon spent avoiding the kitchen


she was always there

she did it all with me


in her own twisted, tortuous way, she got me through it

she got me through everything


it was me and her against the world and

i liked those odds


that's why i felt so empty when she left

even though i was finally full for the first time in five years
