Today would be seven years. Of course, no longer— it’s already over. Still, I wonder— did you remember? I almost forgot, until the memory startled me two days ago. And honestly, it was just a normal day. I felt nothing different. Did you? Were we supposed to feel something? Was I? Sometimes it feels so distant— like it never happened. Sometimes it feels like you were my whole life. I’m sorry for loving you too much. They say love sets you free. But when you love too much, it cages you instead. I caged myself inside a recollection, a memory, a ghost of us.

Seven Years, Almost Forgotten
Today would be seven years. Of course, no longer— it’s already over. Still, I wonder— did you remember? I almost forgot, until the memory startled me two days ago. And honestly, it was just a normal day. I felt nothing different. Did you? Were we supposed to feel something? Was I? Sometimes it feels so distant— like it never happened.
