Astoria,
The sun is out. I'm smiling.
I'm laughing, too. Even as I messily write this letter. The flowers are dancing. Did you know that?
I feel happy.
Those are words I've never thought I'd say again, in real honesty. I'll admit, I still have a gaping hole in my heart where your love used to live, but that hole can stay there.
Life obviously won't be the same, and I'll still be sad sometimes, but it's okay.
It's okay that you died, but not really. As long as you are up in the stars, laughing away with all the passed souls, I'm fine.
I hope you aren't lost. I was, but I was found. This time, not by you. But by myself.
These letter have been a comfort, really. Letting my thoughts out on a sheet of paper and a quill.
Nights are still long, and days continue to run short. That's just how it is, or how it feels.
You died, no going around that fact. There is no bringing you back, no more future moments of you smiling. Only photos and scratchy memories.
But it's okay. Really, it is. Don't look at my with sadness, look at me with joy and pride.
Because I'm here, and that's good. It's good I'm not up there with you because I have a life to live. I'm living it for the both of us.
You were unable to fulfill some dreams due to weakness and pain, so I'll do it. By myself or with others depends on everything.
I'll live, thrive even.
Because, all along, that's what you wanted me to do.
Thrive
Love,
Draco
~~~
As this story is close to closing, I just want to say thank you for those that stayed with me.
