sometimes it's the only way i know how : archive message

Did you think I was cool when you met me? I worried about that. I worried that you would think I was too much when you met me. Because I was listening to Grizzly Bear while we watched Irma Vep movies, because I was too high to think straight and fell asleep all the time and wore those fake topsiders and hated everybody in that class. I worried that you would think I was trying to be cool, and think that I was failing because all of those things were pretty not cool. But I didn’t care a lot and you said, “So you’re pretty eccentric huh?” when you met me and I said, “I don’t think so, no?” And I was confused. So we just danced at Sundance and drank filthy Stella Artois and kissed like hands trying to hold each other.

Dear best mate,

The two hour drive back felt like a million years. We got lost for at least twenty minutes. The cigarette I smoked after my phone died, an hour after we dropped you off, felt bittersweet. It also tasted like shit. I still wish you were here. If anyone is lucky enough to have their best friend right next door, down the street, or even across town, there is something they should embrace: gratefulness. People look forward to seeing their best friend the next day - whether it be at school, or a phone call away when they’re feeling upset and need someone’s company. I look forward to a month, two months later, till I see you again. I hope I got enough footage for the video I am making. Summer to fall, fall to winter, winter to spring, and spring to summer. “The weeks have had wings.”

Here is something that I forget to tell you more often than I should: I am so glad you exist.

Morgan
