The Ern of Life

Blue skies are callin'

That night I got the news I opened my phone to text you and got halfway through the message before I suddenly closed the phone, sat back on the bed with a soft little sag. I suddenly felt like I have out-stripped you somehow, out-grown you in the gentlest way possible. No malice, just growth.
The next day you had a new girlfriend. And I was headed for endless sky. Our lives changed on the same night; they split down two different roads. But there is still no malice, just lessons learned.
