The tempest of my thoughts, contained in a simple page.

Dear Girl Who Holds My Memories,


I kept the moments that we were in,
and I hoped in my heart
 you'd come back to me, my friend
and now I've got you...

Words can't express how happy I am that you're back to stay. 

The afternoon of prom, when you surprised me by coming to visit and helping me get ready before we said goodbye (for the third time in our childhoods, it seemed), it was bittersweet because I was mentally preparing myself to really never see you again. 
And when I got home that night, and quickly changed for after-prom, the note you left me on my pillow had me in heartbreaking tears for a good twenty minutes because I thought I was losing my other half.

But you're back! 

And you'll be here for good. 

Today, cross-legged on my bed, bouncing around excitedly as we caught each other up on noteworthy happenings,
and giggling over little things I would never in a thousand years laugh about with many others,
and squeezing in a hammock in wet hair and bathing suits as the smell of grilling burgers perfumed the air,
I felt like we were ten-year-olds on your trampoline all over again.


I feel like my whole heart just took a deep breath of fresh air.
