how different we’ve become

it used to be that you and me…we were so alike. we liked the same things, we thought the same way, we saw the same things in life as important. how is it that we’ve changed so much?
a long time ago you and i shared the same ideas about life, love, and everything. [...]

a long time ago

after reading the x-gf’s latest entry about a memory long past, it made me recall something from my past.

is it enough?
