525,600 Memories
How do you measure a lifelong friendship?
Pink plays in the background as memories flood my mind. There are reminders of him all around the room. He’s not gone… not yet… but he’s dying and I can’t wrap my head around a life without him.
The entire beginning of the song through the first chorus is just completely what I’m feeling. I let it play on repeat.
I longed for days that never truly existed. A time when life was simple.
But life had never been simple. Not for either of us. We would go out and dance until dawn then watch RENT and sing along. We belted out lyrics that felt all too familiar, all too true, all too… us.
A tiger in a cage can never see the sun
This diva needs her stage, baby let’s have fun!(“Take Me or Leave Me — RENT)
So let’s find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
And all the scars from the
Nevers and maybes die(“Out Tonight” — RENT)
