"Time. Thought I'd make friends with time."

I've been falling in love with Tori Amos again. I loved her in middle school and the beginning of high school, mostly because my best friend at the time always listened to her. Her albums became the soundtrack of those days. And now, years later we are sadly no longer friends, but I still listen to her cds in a way of bringing us back to life. When I hear certain songs I can still see us there in her room, on her deceivingly comfortable bed. Candles throwing jumpy light onto the magazine pages she had pasted to the walls. Just sitting around listening to music and talking about everything. God I miss her some days. Although I have a new best friend, one who I love very very much but in a different way, there are days when I think that I would give anything to go back to those days of Tori Amos and writing on walls, poetry and painting, hair dye and little jars of jelly.
