It’s been 7 months. I still carry you in my heart, like a stone pressing on my breathing. I see you everywhere, in the books I read, in the movies I watch, on the streets, in my bed. I see you with my eyes wide open, I see you with my eyes shut. I still remember your fingers on my skin, I still remember your voice and your jokes, I still remember your smell and your breath. You’re lingering on every little thing in my life. I ask myself if I will be able to feel love ever again. How can you love someone else if you’ve already loved with all your soul and your being? Some days I think about you a little less, but on most of the days, you’re all I think about, 24/24, even when I’m dreaming, I still dream of your hazel eyes, I think about all of my mistakes, about all the little things we had, things that I will never have with another person. I would give up everything if I could just do it all over again, right from the start, and do it differently, so we could have a happy ending. I impatiently wait for all of this to be over. I am tired, I’m so tired of endlessly wrapping my mind around all of these memories. I’m going mad. You’re happy. Or at least I hope you’re happy. I hope you’re happier than you’ve been with me. I hope she treats you how you need, I hope she loves you thoroughly, I hope she would take a bullet for you, like I would’ve. I hope she listens to you and supports all of your ideas, I hope she never gets tired by your amazing mind. I hope she will get the chance to know you like I did and I hope she cherishes  and appreciates you, like I never did. I lost you. I lost the love of my life, because I was scared of commitment, because I didn’t show him the love I felt for him, because I made him think I don’t care about him, when in fact, he was the only thing I cared about. And he still is. I fall asleep with your smile on my mind, imagining your body pressed to mine.
