excerpt
You can’t imagine how I’ve missed you the way I’ve built you in my mind: tender, smiling, always joyous, like when I met you.
Back then when you were always in a hurry to leave your office and come to me, when you couldn’t be without me. Back then when you would whisper in my ear and sing with your sweet hoarse voice. Back then…
How long did it last? Two three months? I no longer remember.
But only this I remember of you. The rest I’ve erased from my memory.
I have only kept this picture of us where only our figures appear like shadows on the wall.
We hug each other no one can tell whether we are happy or not. This way, I like to think we were crazy in love in a moment of absolute happiness.
Two shadows on the wall. Nothing can take them apart misery can’t touch them.
You are my last thought before I go to sleep at night and my first one when I get up in the morning. The rest of the day I simply think of you.
Then I realize what has happened to us.
