With both hands I smooth back my hair under the falling water.

The tips of my fingers split my hair back into what feels like a slippery fishtail.

I’m still washing out the ghost of purple dye.

The main thing on my mind as the hot water sputters out of the showerhead, are a few sentences left for me.

I wish I had been there, I truly did.

At 5 AM I’m almost ashamed to admit I was probably having the deepest moment of sleep I had had in such a long time.

Its true, my friend Roo and I, we had never met…
But we have had a long and pleasant friendship.

Somehow we’ve always given good advice and listened well.

We’ve been there…
disappeared..
reappeared..

I recall a specific moment in my life where I was kneeling down at a low coffee table.
It was close to almost 3 AM and Roo and I talked

As I tried to ease my mind of what I had thought at the time was a friend’s suicide.

I don’t think I had mentioned it to him, but I may have.
I more than likely had been through so much the previous hours I couldn’t bring myself to burden another soul.

I really cant remember that much.

I just remember the glow of the monitor and how still it was,
save for what seemed the last two people awake.

I feel awful for not having been there a few days ago, Roo.

I know things are hectic with you, and I know I should blog more.

Hardly anyone visits this place.

I rarely have much good to say.

Future seems quite dim for me here,
I can only hope you are faring better.

P.S. I have purple hair.

P.P.S I forbid any stalking because of aforementioned purple hair.
