Just thinking

When we met I saw a glimpse of our future; Of what was to be.

The warmth of your embrace,

The quiet content moments in between

The sharing of thoughts and past hurts and the promises of a continuous cycle of healing not for ourselves, but for us as a unit.

Love was there in these moments

The times we fought through misunderstandings, the times we ached through silent treatments, the times we cried silently over wounds we didnt make, but wounds created by past experiences we were forced to deal with together.

Love was there in these moments

We said our goodbyes.

Years has gone.

I'm at my local grocery shop looking for tomatoes of all things.

I stop and for some reason I smell you and you're not here. I think of us lying on the bed, my fingers running through your curly hair, and the look in your eyes, A honey brown searching into my gaze as your mouth curls into a grin and between us a feeling of rest and a true understanding of what it meant to be present. My hands reach for the heirlooms

Still, love in this moment.
