if i hadn't replied to your post and said i that i wanted to hear you sing,
things would be so different for me.

it was april 22nd of 2020,
when we exchanged that first message

little did i know how just much you would mean to me, its been 8 months and i feel like garbage.

why'd you have to go and be so far away? 900 miles is far too much space.

i wish that i could just tell you how i feel,
but there's no point so instead i'll sit here and pretend what i feel isn't real.

here i am listening to your voice messages over and over again.
it's my favorite sound, how am i supposed to love anything else?

why'd you have to go and be so far away? 900 miles is far too much space.
