i will remember her:
October first. the day i was to see Bayside play a home show at Irving Plaza, the band that seemed to know the highs and lows, the lilts and curls of our rollercoaster. i will remember the sketch sent, the apology text, the opening of that door. it meant everything because it meant i could heal and she would help me do it. it meant everything because it meant a break in the silence. later, she gave me a letter that meant everything and now i can listen to Megan without crying.
