These Letters

“After you were gone, in a place beyond
both space and time, I realized
how much was left unsaid.”

I hold this letter, knowing there’s no worldly destination to send it. It holds all the secrets my heart couldn’t bear to say. All the things I wanted to share, soul to soul. I wanted you to know what you meant to me. I wanted you to see how much I loved you. But in the end, no matter what I said, or what I did, it felt like nothing was ever enough. Especially after you were gone, in a place beyond both space and time, I realized how much was left unsaid. So now, I’ll keep writing in hopes that somehow you’ll find them.
