What can I do but look into the blank pages of this book and hope that all of the things that my mind could translate or bring to life would fade away and take with it all that we have said. It just seems so long that we were there and I don’t know why but as I stare into this book, pencil to paper, it feels like it took away from me, that faint feeling. To me, yeh, it feels like it took everything away, everything from me. I wish that I could make you see how time can change what we have made, how time has changed everything.
