They are gone,
your friends too.
Now on this coldest of nights
you will turn in your sleep,
dream back to the beginning.
It was something you said,
it was something you did.
No matter – you live in a house with paper walls,
they will collapse if you move too fast.
What if you can recreate the beginning?
If they all return tomorrow will you burst into bloom?
Perhaps everything will turn out right.
Though I believe you will wake from your dream
to find you cannot reinvent the end.
The End

oh, I know this. Somehow, when loss and doubt and friendships that have changed or ended is expressed so eloquently, it feels more human and less lonely.
