Since We Spoke Last

Since we spoke last,

I dyed my hair twice.

And got a couple jobs.

And quit a couple more.

I nearly got a tattoo,

but settled on a piercing instead.

I signed a lease for my first apartment,

and changed my major back

to the one you talked me out of the first time.

I got lost a couple times,

and learned how to save myself.

I figured out how important real friends are.

I went on a few dates,

and said a few things I regret.

I missed you and scorned you

in equal measure.

And finally realized

that everything in life is a lesson.

I learned what I will and won't

accept anymore.

And I could probably kick your ass at Halo now.

I changed my music tastes a couple times,

and tried not to think of you.

I learned how to code websites,

how to smoke menthol's,

and how to hold my liquor.

I learned how to get off my phone and

enjoy life once in a while,

because I don't have to wait for you

to call anymore.

I counted hours and stopped counting months,

and realized that those anniversaries are just

other days now.

And that's okay.

I realized that life goes on,

no matter how much you're sure it won't.

And that's okay too...!!!
