I know, even as the first chords of the song filter through the speakers, that I'm going to cry by the time the song is done. But for some reason, I don't shut it off. It hurts. But on a deeper level, I indulge in the soft, sad notes of a memory. _&quot;Everyone knows that you're my favorite girl. But there's some things in life that are not meant to be - I'm not meant for you and your not meant for me.&quot;_ As much as he doesn't know it, I'm going to miss him more than I could ever express. That song - he could be speaking directly to me for all it matches us. History comes rushing back, crashing over my head like a tangible wave. Hours and days, smiles and tears - all reduced down to the flash-flame photography of a minute of memories. We laugh, we joke. But underneath it all is the dull ache of knowing we're going to have to eventually part ways. He's a great guy, my best friend, my second half. And as the tears start to fall, I already miss him. _Here's to your having a good life._ 2008-03-31T18:12:10Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/25400 <p>break up songs,of loss, seem to be the best, saddest.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/25400?basename=53283 2008-03-31T18:12:10Z SKermitgorf http://ficlets.com/authors/kermitgorf <p>Love that song.
