Man These Times Are Hard

by amixdeuxgirl

I miss Gale. There are so many drastic changes in my life, I need a friend. What if he hasn't fogiven me? I'll take the chance.

He never forgave me for choosing Peeta. I tried to console him, convince him that he didn't need me.

He had the most hurt expression I had ever seen. His eyes swam with tears.

"I thought there was hope. You made me think there was hope." He said.

He turned and walked away. I never saw him again.

I look at the picture of Gale in the chest at the end of my mahogany bed.

Peeta is gone. To work.

I crouch down, sit on the floor cross-legged.

I heard that your settled down.
That you found a girl and your married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
Old friend why are you so shy?
It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

You'd know how the time flies.
Only yesterday was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summery haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over yet.

A tear slides down my cheek. I need to see him.

I do love him, he was my best friend.

Man, these times are hard.
