wesley

today i talked to a friend i haven't talked to in 
2 and a half years.  ( no letters, even )
it was weird.  but familiar.  
weird because it's been so long, familiar because 
everything came back so quickly: 
memories, feelings, emotion, pain, joy, 
excitement, disappointment, history.
we didn't reminisce.  just looked ahead.  
i feel like so much time has gone by, but at the same time, none.  
  
we talked today like we'd been best friends for years.  
like we were never apart. like he had never left.  
like he never got mad and i never reacted.  
like he had forgotten what had been and let me be what i've grown into.
like he cared.  like he knew.  like he had changed.   

amazing how two years can change you so much, 
yet keep you so much the same that things can pick up 
right where they left off without a second thought.  
i experienced a time warp today.  
is it really time for them to start coming home?
