With the love of my life. I sat on my bed with my head on his shoulder wishing it would never end.

The tears flooded my eyes every time I looked at his sweet face and saw our happy memories float by.

Cooking for him made my heart swell with warmth and love.

But him leaving, shortly after, for another month…it shattered my happiness into a million tiny pieces.

It was like someone had punched me, knocking the air completely out of my lungs, collapsing my heart, once swollen with warmth, now crestfallen and limp.

Being without him is the most challenging when night falls.

I am immediately wrapped in darkness, clutching my stuffed animals close to my heart, I wail out in despair.

Feverish tears soaking my linens, staining my face red, and draining my strength to stay awake.

The pain is so wretched, I just want it to leave forever. He’s the only one that scares the pain away.

I wish he would come back.

I love him with all of my heart.

One day darling. One day.
