Have you ever experienced a time where you get more upset at a situation than the person actually in it? It just touches a nerve that you thought you had removed a long time ago. It brings up feelings that you thought you had gotten rid of. Maybe things have been so good for so long that you forgot the times when things were bad. When people took you for granted and misused your love. I forgot how that felt until it happened to someone I care about.
Then I remembered.
I didn't want to. I didn't mean to. But I remembered. I wanted to protect my friend from experiencing the same hurt, confusion, and frustration that I went through. But I can't. This is her life. As much as it pains me to watch her go through this, I've done all I can do. I can't keep her from going through what I did. I wish I could. But I can't.
