One Spring Day

“You cannot say why you Loved someone.

Only that you did. Only that you don’t anymore”

But Me. I do remember why I loved you.

That doesn’t mean I still love you, at least that is what I hope.

It just means that I am still somewhat living in the past, while I need to move forward.

But the Past is what made Me, what made US.

So, persistently and stubbornly I will allow myself to live in the Past. A few times a week, a few hours at a time, a few minutes in each hour.

I will allow myself to live in the Past because:

• that was where we met

• that was when I fell in Love

• that was when our beautiful children were born

• that was when we built our life

• that was when things happen

• that was when…

The Past is what made us. I will live through it, but with less and less frequency and less and less emotion.

Less and less, until one day the Past is just that – the Past. Until one day, my Love becomes Loved.

For your Past, my Past, our Past.

For the time we will never have again.
