Lost duckie

I had a friend who sent me some awesome socks. We aren't friends anymore, but I still think fondly of her when I wear these socks. Today, one of my socks lost its duckie.

I can't help but feel it's another thread breaking between us, even though the friendship has been over for nearly a year. People talk about breaking up with boyfriends and girlfriends all the time, but it's just as painful (if not sometimes worse) to cut off a friendship. Why aren't there more songs and poems?

Maybe I just need some new socks.
