beckoning, relentless

sentimental reasons

for the first time in my life, i feel an overwhelming sadness knowing the school year is finally over. saying goodbyes is always hard.

next friday i say goodbye to a dear friend. i'll never see him again. i'll fly out at 6am the next morning, and he'll return to his home across the world soon after.

i never took any moment with him for granted. i knew it was coming— it's haunted me for months. even then, i fear the truth: i am still not ready. where did all the time go? what would it take to keep what i have?

this reality will become another dream. knowing that i will one day find peace makes me sick
