I thought about most of the people I ever met in my life and wondered what had become of some of them.
Life just does the divide and it can be quite painful. Especially if one had expected a life-long stay with that person. But in your words, everybody truly cannot come.
I cried ofcourse; each line sent me back to every face and place, I felt the void anew. In a space of 4 years, I lost every friendship I had.
I used to say, I survive people and circumstances too. But the recent losses weren't the kind that necessarily felt unhealthy for me, it is just like you said; not everyone can come along with you. They were there for a season and they were treasured compartments of my very soul. I miss those who gifted me with beautiful questions, and deep conversations about the intangible things, the true stuffings of our lives.
The soundtrack to my tears as I write this long comment is Good Goodbye by Lianne La Havas 😂 yes, I have a soundtrack.
Thank you Ms Ogazi, you made me feel all the treasured memories of every soulmate I ever knew. 😇🙏🏽
