The sky was so clear this morning I could have connected the dots from the Little Dipper to the Big Dipper.
As I drove home from the cafe on the corner... I remembered something I couldn't quite believe I forgot.
I remember the way the morning air felt when we walked across the lawn. After the rain had fallen so hard we could smell the freshness the next day.
I remember the brightness in your eyes when you looked at the map and pointed at this random dot with some strange name and said this was to be our next big adventure.
I remember the smell of your hair as we cuddled under the stars on a clear night just like this morning...
I remembered this because you were there... You were the reason I could connect the dots of constellations so far away.
You were the reason I wasn't afraid of random dots on a map.
You were the reason the rain made me smile...
I just smiled and drove home to think about you... And I hope you're doing okay.
