Ryncaria's Last Goodbye ft. Sarah Gaygen

Hi, this is Zac. I'm probably working on music right now and can't hear my phone going off. Leave me a message and I'll call you back.

Hey Zac, it's Ryncaria. I know you haven't seen me in almost a year and I just disappeared but. I heard… one of our songs came on. It was that one we really liked that played all the time in the cafe on campus, then it was in our road trip playlist..

I know I've ducked every call and message but… I had to tear down everything familiar… I had to see what stuck and what faded away. I could keep it all out of my head sometimes… but it has a way of sneaking back in. Like that song. I get moments where I think back to us. It used to make me anxious, make me feel bad but now it's different. Wistful. Like I don't want to be there again, but it's warm and happy in the rear view mirror. I know you tried everything to make it work and you're probably upset… and I understand. I'm in another state now, I'm gonna guess that you are too… we always talked about it. I'm building up something new. New place, new people, new friends, hopefully a new life without a cloud around me. No streaming, either. No great ambitions or wild dreams. And no partner either, not for a while.

But I wanted to call to say I did finally listen to one thing you said. I'm practicing the violin again… just for the simple joy of it, like you suggested. I'm not as good as I used to be but… well, I'll play a little bit, just for you…
