And I guess I thought that maybe it could be that easy, to just go back to being friends, but now... well, I haven't heard from him, and I haven't exactly been dying to reach out. It's just not the same. I miss him," she admitted. "But I miss him more as a friend than as my boyfriend. I think - after all the time he was gone - I think I knew what was coming, you know?"

You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleedin'
