Invisible Wounds

A letter to my other half

June 12th Dear River,

It's been a full 4 months since you've been gone. It hasn't been easy, especially for me. I miss you. I miss going to our old spot in the treehouse and talking about life. I miss seeing your face and when we drank milkshakes together. You were my best friend. My mom thinks I'm holding in to you too much. She thinks I should let you go. But that's never going to happen. I loved you. I still do. I've been doing things I shouldn't. I know you said don't mess up my life and do dumb stuff just because you gone. But it's all been too much on me. I'm sorry but I want to join you. In life and even in death.
