Sometimes I just sit quietly and think about how fast everything changed.
Back then school life felt alive š Not perfect⦠but real.
There was me, Nadeesha, and Sethmuthu.
Three completely different people.
Nadeesha was talented in many things. Sports, studies, band, even school fights he acted like that fearless hero type š„š Always joking, always showing off a little in front of girls just to look āporaā š
Sethmuthu was the brain of the group š§ āļø Education, chess, logic⦠everything calculated.
And me?
I was the tech guy š»ā” Coding, apps, internet stuff, dreaming big in silence. Now also trying gym life šļøāāļø ā building myself piece by piece.
Not the strongest. Not the smartest. Not the most popular.
But I was me⦠and we were a group.
We laughed together š Fought like idiots š¤ Fixed things again like nothing happened Walked school like we owned the place
It felt normal.
Now I realize⦠it was actually everything.
Then life started separating us.
Nadeesha left school first⦠Rahula š« I told myself itās okay.
Now Sethmuthu also got selected there.
And something inside me just went quiet.
Not jealousy. Not hate.
Just⦠empty.
Like a part of my everyday life got deleted forever š
Now school feels different.
Same classrooms⦠same people⦠but not the same world.
And maybe the worst part is long distance.
Not only friends⦠even love.
I love someone deeply ā¤ļø But she is far away too.
People think texting is enough.
Itās not.
I donāt want more āI miss youā texts š± I donāt want more emojis ā¤ļøš
I just want presence.
I want real moments. I want real smiles. I want real silence beside someone.
Because no message can replace sitting next to the person you love.
But insteadā¦
I sit alone in front of a screen š± waiting⦠typing⦠overthinking⦠repeatingā¦
And slowly you start realizing something painful:
People donāt stay in the same place as your feelings.
They move. They change schools. They change lives. They change distance.
And you just⦠stay with memories.
Sometimes I feel like Iām always the one left behind š
Friends go. Love stays far. Moments donāt repeat.
And no matter how strong I act⦠some nights still feel heavy.
Like silence is louder than everything else š
Maybe Iām learning something.
Or maybe Iām just losing people one by one.
I donāt even know anymore.
All I know is....
I miss what we had⦠and nothing feels like it again šš¤š
