A little bit of sadness, forever

As a final act of my love, I want to tell you that I now understand something I never wanted to face—that I will always, for the rest of my life, carry a little bit of sadness because you are not here with me. No matter how much time passes, I will see you in every little thing I do—the way the sun spills through the window, the quiet moments at home, even in the softest silence. Nothing will ever fully heal this ache, and I’ve accepted that it’s not meant to. Because this pain is also love—it’s the measure of how deeply you were woven into my life.

I feel privileged that my heart knows this kind of hurt, because it means I had you. And even with the sadness, I would not trade a single moment of what we had together. If I had to choose, I would choose you again and again, even knowing how it ends.

Run free, my love—you will always be with me. ♥️
