It’s been ten years since she got on a train and went back to California. Being in the same room as her was a miracle. Making her laugh and smile was the greatest thing I will ever achieve. Laying next to her night after night for four years flew by like a minute. She did nothing wrong and I had no idea how to make her happy. She gave me real happiness. She was my one true love. I never knew a living person could haunt you. I have a decade of nightly dreams to prove it. I have no idea how or if I will ever move on. I wish nothing but the best for her, her Coast Guard husband and her son. No matter what I achieve, without her I am nothing but an empty shell.
