Maybe it was too soon. But I couldn't keep putting myself through it.
It's enough that a birthday card will randomly pop up with your signed x's and o's, or your cook book will stare at me in my pantry... It's enough that your crystals serve as a daily reminder in my jewelry box and that I happened across my "something old" white, hand-embroidered handkerchief you gifted me last June. It's all enough. I don't even need these things to miss you. To cry for you.
It didn't feel right...
But something told me it never would.
