Stand by Me

“I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?”The line deeply resonates with me. I also used to have so many friends back in school. The way we used to hang out every day after school, being young and having time of our lives like there was no tomorrow. But as I grew older, I found "friends" is an obscure word. I ended up finding my own way by myself, detached from people whom i used to be closed. That's why yearning could hurt my feeling sometimes, not because of what i have lost for many years, but simply because how those memories remind me of a best version of myself.
