It’s been months since my wife left me. But I still find it difficult to continue on this treacherous journey of life without her companionship.
While taking the holy vows of marriage, she had promised me she’d never leave me. But now I’m left alone in this oh-so-crowded world.
Or am I?
Am I as alone as I feel or is she still with me? Does she continue to keep her promise or, as I dread, has she turned back on her words?
I search for her at places I think she would be. I search for her in time and in memories, hoping that as I desperately try and reach out for her, she too will reach out to me. Because without her presence in my life, I fail to find any solid purpose.
She couldn’t have just vanished into thin air now could she? She has to be somewhere….. I just have to find her so I could carry her with me in the next chapter of my life.
