Remembering you
is easy.
I do it every day,
in the quiet moments,
in familiar places,
and in all the little things
that still remind me of you.
What isn't easy
is missing you.
Because remembering
brings back the love,
but missing you
brings back the pain
of knowing I can't
have you here again.
Sometimes a simple memory
can make me smile,
and then, just as quickly,
my heart remembers
why that memory hurts.
I miss your presence.
I miss your voice.
I miss the comfort
of knowing you were near.
I miss the ordinary moments
I once never thought
I would have to live without.
People sometimes say
that time heals everything,
but I don't think
time makes me miss you less.
It simply teaches me
how to carry the missing
without letting it
take away all the beautiful
things you left behind.
So I will keep remembering you.
I will keep your stories,
your laughter,
your kindness,
and every precious moment
we shared.
Because forgetting you
is something my heart
will never learn to do.
The heartbreak may become
quieter with time,
but it will always be thereā
a small reminder
of how deeply you were loved.
And whenever I look
at the moon,
or find myself alone
with my thoughts,
I know I'll think of you again.
Remembering you
will always be easy.
It's missing you
that will always hurt.
And I will carry
both of those things
for the rest of my life.
