A trip to remember

FEB 17TH~


The plane landed and my heart pounded
I knew I was walking into my past head first
but this decision was made already, there was no turning back
all I had to do now was follow he baggage claim arrows
and look for a familiar face
a face of my past the most popular face of my past.
the first boy to tell me everything is going to be ok
its crazy getting that jolt of energy with the thought that we
acually knew eachother all of our lives.
we walk through the airport, I'm close to deaf and worrying about my hair
hat on or off. Should I be on the phone to avoid
the awkward first hello and seem super LA
because you see I was LA. I've lived there now for 5 years which
someone on the back of my mind reminded me the night before.
his first words were about my choice with the hat. He loved it.
I couldn't stop smiling as I walked with my this person who I barely knew but knew everything about.
my favorite person of my past of not so favorite memories.
my grin went from ear to ear as we fell right back into that comfort zone,
this weekend we didn't need to talk about everything we talked
about just enough. We talked about what ever was on our minds at that time. The memories came streaming in. It was like we were growing up together all over again for what should have Ben 6 year but really just 3 days.
I could write about his weekend detail for detail.
but instead just as I decided not to take pictures I have also decided not to relive every second but to just live it.
let it take its course
it may end up taking itself to my next chapter but that to be decided. For now it was a weekend I needed. A weekend to remind myself of who I am.
I like to think the past will do that.
