Why is it that the first time I see my cousins in years is because a beloved family member died? Why do they only feel the need to see brothers and sisters because they feel they have to console them? When we talk we are strangers, we may now each other's names, but that's all.
Why is it that the one person I have known for years I know nothing about? Why is it that the people I planned on moving out with are miles away and we only speak for little things? Why did one year split us up? Why is it that I know nothing about you now, and we haven't talked in over a year? The people who made me who I am and who I grew up with I know nothing about now. We promised this wouldn't happen to us. When that first didn't work, we promised more, and in turn lost more. Why is it when I try to text you I feel like a stranger, and that I have to introduce myself?
