Now this is platonic.

I swear it is, it’s just that friendly love you get with those who mean the world to you; you don’t love them in a romantic way but you just love them, and that’s that. You’ll have good times together making each other laugh, comforting each other when one of you is down; and I promise and I swear that it won’t go another way.

Well I say that because I have romantic love with someone, have for a while, and that won’t change. And that, in itself, a platonic element of friendship too. It’s just another step ahead and it would only make sense to love one person in that way. It would be logical.

And then I come to think of how I miss people. Yeah, we all miss our friends. It’s not bad at all. But in crying when you miss someone, do you miss them that much? I try to think back. I try to think back but I’m not sure if I can compare. No, I can’t. I ought to just sit where I am now, be appreciative of what I have, smile about it… because smiling will keep me from crying.

People matter. My friends matter. It’s okay to cry if I miss them.
