calum hood age 12:

it's been 2 years
maybe even more

i told mum that i still miss her
she told me that it was understandable
lucy was my first love
lucy is my only love

i couldn't get her off my mind
every time i went out
i'd secretly hope to bump into her
to see her smile one more time

man, i didn't think it was possible for a kid my age to feel this way

michael keeps me occupied.
he helps me temporarily forget.
i met him two years ago just a bit after lucy left

his first words to me were:
"i hate everyone in my grade, wanna hang out?"
i was 10 at the time
he was 11

he would always listen to my rambling
michael's really great at comforting me
i'm glad i have him in my life

(note: michael is a grade above, because i can)
