Dear Caitlin,
Another day without you, and the world feels dull and lifeless. I went to work today, hoping to find some sense of normalcy, but it was pointless. My colleagues tried to be supportive, but their words felt hollow. They don't understand the emptiness I feel inside. I left early and came home to sit in your favorite chair, the one by the window where you used to read.
I spent hours looking at old photos of us. Do you remember our trip to the beach last summer? I can still hear your laughter, see the joy in your eyes as you ran towards the water. You looked so beautiful, with your hair blowing in the wind and that smile that could light up the darkest room. I found the seashell you picked up that day. You said it was a reminder of our love, eternal and enduring like the ocean. Now, it feels like a relic of a past life.
I long for those days, Cait. I miss you more than words can say. Every little thing reminds me of you, from the smell of your favorite perfume lingering in the air to the way the sunlight filters through the curtains the way you liked. It's these small memories that keep me going, even though they also break my heart. I don't know how to move forward without you. Writing to you helps, but the ache of your absence is overwhelming.
Love always,
Davin
