texts to jon from the airport after another weekend of not seeing him

I cant believe that when 
you were my age i was 
only a junior in high 
school. And i cant imagine 
what it must be like to be 
you. I cant imagine what 
its like to be a 21 year old 
boy. I cant even wrap my 
head around my own life.
I have trouble believing 
my life is even real.

I feel like i've lived so
many lives and been so
many people that i'm 
drowning in it all. I feel
like my identity is
fractured rather than
fluent. I feel like all these
lives exist simutaneously
and i cant decide which
one is the most important
or the one i like the best.

And then to think that
other people mihgt feel
the same way and are
also walking around with 
all these past selves and 
all these experiences so
different from my own
just blows my mind.

And all i really want is to 
know all of someone else
and have them know all
of me and i really think
that is just an
impossibility because
everything gets lost in
translation from one 
person to the next and i
feel especially from girl
to boy or from upper
class to lower class etc
etc etc

I only understand you in 
retrospect if i even 
understand you at all.
