Soulmates

For the super indie kids of the 80’s
Who love their friends and their cartoons
Even the retarded ones, which star
Yellow sponges with shorts that live in the sea

For the mindless hours of chatting and dancing
In the middle of the streets, late at night
Till the early morning – when the sun says hello
And we’re all finally in our own beds

For the sweet, sweet love that makes me feel warm
When I’m a lost little girl with a polka dot dress
And ballet flats on my feet, singing to Deathcab
In my voice that often gets the notes wrong

For touching my toes is not my only ability
I can hug a million times and laugh for hours
Till we get face cramps and give in to the tiredness
And we say goodnight with light hearts and heavy feet

For the girl that I love – Jules, I'll miss you

I wanted to write a letter for you(even penned this down for you), but every time I tried to get started on one, I'd get all weepy and I'd stop.

I've been teary eyed all week, every time I hear The Bravery or some Deathcab song or basically any other sad song that reminded me that you were leaving. I was teary eyed at the airport and even when I got home and started looking at our pictures.

I know you'll be fine and you'll do great and I'm so proud and happy for you. But don't you dare let our friendship dissolve ok, because I love you so much and I never want to lose you. Just the thought of you not being next to me for the next 5 months is enough for me to start crying again, I don't care how stingy I sound, I'm waiting very patiently for Christmas.

Like everyone else, I'm good at acting as though I'm strong and I it didn't really settle in till I couldn't see your back anymore, but Ju, srsly, you have no idea how much you've affected my life in the past 3 years and I am so thankful to have a friend like you.

LOVE KNOWS NO BOUNDRIES, I'll always be here - just an email/sms/phone call/love letter away.
