its so weird thinking about childhood best friends you don't know anymore. like. the girl and her siblings who lived next door for year, who I used to considered my sister, who now looking back on it was probably my first crush ever, who swore we would grow up together, who was only 'visiting' her family for a month, turns out her parents lied to us, I never saw her again. the girls I went to summer to summer camp with every year and now I can barely remember there faces.
like. how are they doing?
I still can't conceptualize that these people who mattered *so* much to me are just... gone... chances are that I will never see them again, especially my best friend who's back in Pakistan, and even if I did, so much time has passed that I would most likely not recognize them even if I did see them.
#in my mind they're frozen in time#who knows where they are or who they've become#to me we're still 8 years old playing Minecraft in her basement#or 11 and going to the beach#or 12 and im sitting next to her at the dinner table#im 10 and meeting up with all my friends at summer camp#im 13 and its my last year at camp and we all sorta know we'll never see each other but we won't say it#im 14 and scrolling through my old Instagram trying to find a sliver of hope that I'll ever talk to her again#I miss her#I miss them#im forgetting her voice#how is one of the most important parts of me. of my childhood fading away?#currently sobbing#if fatima. who loves unicorns and dogs and the color purple and popcorn and brownies and left for a wedding and never came back. Hi.#your best friend misses you. More than you could ever know.#I still have those friendships necklaces that were supposed to come in before you left. they came 3 days after. I still have them in my room#I never gave the pink one to rose. I never saw her again either#personal vent
