people, meaning person. the one human in my life that was never shy to show me off. was never hiding me, or wanted me to be a secret. the one that nurtured me into silence when times were loud.
the only person i ever wrote a goodbye letter for.
i miss you. those seem like such simple words, a three letter sentence - but it's more to me than that. i would walk across oceans - hell i have - to be with you again. apparently "mother knows best" is stronger than free-will.
for one day ill be back, hand in hand. we will take on the word. after that, next stop - the moon. lastly we come back, find our home, settle into our future.
i've so far deleted the goodbye letter. this is not a hello, yet.
know that i see you.
i hear your laugh in the morning. as i fall asleep, your smile is on my eyelids.
i wish i could do more than write shitty excerpts from an unfinished "book."
but for now this is the best i can do. and i know you know that.
please continue to be safe, and try your best to be happy. when you're not, i feel your tears on my cheeks.
xoxo.
soulmate
