I saw him today...riding by in his car. I didn't realize how much I still hurt till I started to tear up. Its been about a year. I miss him, and I will always love him. I can't help but want to reach out and be there, but it would do me more harm than good. I don't want to fill that place in me that burns, with someone or something else. I want to be ok, with me. Just me. Right now. It is not an ache that lasts, but a moment that pops up with the nearness of a memory, dream, or glimpse.
It isn't a help that I'm tired and very hungry, and an emotional woman at times...
I'm ok. And for the most part very very happy.
When I'm hurt in this way, I go past my bubble, through the fog and over the ocean... to a place where people are suffering... and remember how I have so much to live for and give back... My place is not with him...but my heart will always remember, love, forgive, and move forward.
I hope every one of you is having a day to live for...
Much love to you,
A.M.
