letter #3

It's Thursday. Six days since you disappeared without a trace. I sat by the window today and stared at the spot across from me; the spot you used to sit. Feels like just yesterday you were there, a coffee cup in your hands, big, beautiful smile on your face and light in your eyes. There isn't anything in the world I wouldn't give to see that smile again.

I remember one day, when we had stayed up all night talking, in the early hours of the morning you asked me, "Hey, Gray, do you believe in forever?" I looked at you and instantly said yes. You asked me why, and I told you that I started to believe in forever after I met you. You made me feel like I would be young forever. The way you carried yourself not only exhibited the most raw, uncut emotion, but so much youth, timelessness and inexplicable beauty. I had never met anyone that was able to bring it out of me, but when we were together, you made me feel timeless too. Made me feel like I, myself, could last forever. That we would last forever.

But you're gone now. And I don't know if you're ever coming back.

Forever is so much shorter than I thought it would be,

Grayson.
