We got to know each other in dancing class. I don't believe in love at first sight but we immediatly took a liking in each other. Although it was clear that it could not last, we started a relationship. We loved each other very much, but too soon came the day of departure. It hurt more than any physical injury, I had ever experienced before. It felt as if a huge hole was beeing torn into my body and there was no chance of ever filling it again.
This pain went on for a year and although the pain gradually faded it never quite disappeared. Then I saw him again quite suddenly and unexpectedly. He was exactly as I remembered him. It stirred up all my feelings. All these little things. The way he moved while dancing. How he looked at me. And I could almost feel that little scar on his left hand I could always feel while holding his hand. But still there was no chance I could be with him. Even if he still loved me it just wouldn't work, because life separated us once again. And one more time I had to lock away my feelings, my love, deep down inside so my heart wouldn't shatter.
After this day, I did not see him for many years. The thought of him faded, but it was always with me in some way. Sometimes I saw his smile on a differnet man or smelled his perfume on someone passing by and the memories came back. After an eternity, I finally met him another time. And this time circumstances wouldn't separate us ever again .....

.... Sobbing she stopped writing. Her fingers, which had just flown over the keyboard quickly, now writhed in pain. She knew that it was just fiction. Tears flowed down her distorted face and dripped on the table. 'If only it were that simple,' she thought.
