Different
In a way, I guess I was right. He did come back different, but not the different I expected. The day after he left, I had a dream that he forgot us completely, the feeling of loss that followed, I couldn't shake for days. Then he came back, it had only been a couple of months, yet to me, it felt like years. I couldn't connect with him in the ways I was used to, I felt like he was a stranger. I've spent months trying to rebuild our friendship, but now I'm beginning to think it will never heal. I think the problem with us is that he's more conscious of what people thought then before and I don't care. I guess its because I'm more strongly rooted in what I believe myself to be. I know who I am and don't care what others think, except the people that matter. Maybe the next time I see him it'll be different, or maybe the rift between us will have grown deeper. I don't know, but what I do know is that I'm unique and what ever happens, won't change that. Even if I want it to.
