I think about her all the time. The little things around me remind me of her. The memories of a summer come and gone play in slow motion on repeat in my mind and I cannot stop them nor do I want to. Sometimes I will pass the place where she works and I'll be snapped into a separate reality where she and I sat outside and laughed about nothing for hours. Our short time together felt like a lifetime, and all I wanted was for it to continue.
I miss her like nothing else. She left such an imprint on my life and in my heart that, I cannot think of love without thinking of her. She inhabits my thoughts in the daytime in the light, and the darkness at night when I close my eyes. I reminisce on the blazing summer heat and smell of sweat as we ran playing childish games while simultaneously being mature. She awoke that in me, my maturity, and I brought out the giggling child in her. A mix so beautiful, that our aura together burned brighter than the street lights we hid beneath at night.
I love her with a love I've never known before. She resides inside every nook and cranny of my heart that has never known anything but sour endings. She is one of the only ones to have treated it with such grave, kindness, and respect, that I can do nothing but treat hers the same. But I do not get the chance to do that. She lives another life outside the one she and I temporarily shared. She has friends and family so plentiful and demanding her time, that I could not intervene and ask for any more of it. She has other responsibilities that do not concern or include me. But I understand this, I do not see her as another one who walked out on me, but as someone who taught me one of life's greatest lessons.
So now, the greatest sacrifice I must know is letting her go and not pursuing her on the road to her future, while on my own path I remain. For she is a pinnacle of perfection to me, a princess. I am not, and I'm no prince. Even though logically I know she must be flawed, I more blatantly recognize my own faults then attempt to find any in her. So she goes on and as do I, I keep hope that our paths may cross again some day.
