As the days go on, I've noticed something. Something of somewhat importance, and something of sadness, maybe even regret or guilt.

A lot of people you meet in a lifetime, ones that you say are "friends," are like icebergs amongst the cold oceans. Slowly drifting away from the land it once came from.

After years of these so called "friendships," I began to see the amount of people that tend to be just like these icebergs. Over years of communication, years of fun and joy, it all disappears after that. No more things to talk about, no more having fun or feeling joy...

After all the icebergs leave, you're back where you once started. Perhaps you started with zero people or even just one. You're back to that after an iceberg leaves.

I've come to terms with this knowledge. The sad truth of reality. Not everyone stays nor will everyone stick to you like that snowy top of the iceberg.

Icebergs can be nice for a little, but once you start to reminisce on those people, you feel cold and sad.

After a while, you'll forget those icebergs, and they too will melt away just like the "friendship" once did.

They'll melt like you already did in their mind.

Nothing but cold, icy water will remain. It can be refreshing, or it could be a salty memory.
