My dearest,
It has been decades now. I try not to think of you as much, it still sits an open wound. Although with time, the pain of losing you has lessened to a constant dull throb. I have dedicated my life to helping humans, even though it pains me to be around beings whose existence is a mere blink of an eye compared to mine. I think you would have liked this, me helping people. There are a few who seem to think themselves my companions, I do not have the heart to correct them. They follow me about and criticize my poor moods, and even go so far as to scold me when I am too sour in their opinion. They remind me of you in those moments. You were the first being that had ever challenged me in earnest. Humans and their attitude towards life still vex me.
I still love you.
