I don’t miss the lying,
but I miss the dying,
of laughter.
I don’t know what it is that you were after,
but it wasn’t me.
I wonder and wonder,
but I still can’t see,
there’s no rhyme or reason,
it just wasn’t meant to be.

I am seeing subaru foresters everywhere I go.
Is this the Universe’s way of letting me know?
Or am I just hyperaware?
Because you are no longer here.

The brush strokes remind me of your strokes.
Color.
Intensity.
Pressure.
Length.
Width.
Release.

I am walking with your ghost again,
through fields filled with weeds, abandoned store parking lots, and cemeteries you now call home.
I am walking with your ghost again,
through empty playgrounds, the haunted city asylum, and the forest where you told me your first secret.
I am walking with your ghost again, through buildings where our laughter no longer echoes, on rusty train tracks, to the last place we were whole.
I am walking with your ghost again,
but you are fading as the sun is climbing the sky.
I am walking along again,
bracing myself for your millionth goodbye.

I dreamed that we could always be that close.
That I would always be the one that your heart desired, that it loved.
That we played together, that we laughed.
That when one of us was down, the other was always around to bring them up.
I dreamed of giving my virginity to you.
of you being the one for me, forever.
Just one. The first and the last.
I dreamed of you as the perfect husband and devoted father.
Affectionate.
I dreamed that our chemistry never faded.
That it always burned as brightly as it ever did.
I dreamed your laugh forever.
I dreamed your smile.
I dreamed your love.
I dreamed your touch.
I dreamed your weight on top of me.
–S.
