Dear Mars,
It’s been a while since you had a face and a name. You exist
in a drifting memory or a fleeting fantasy- no more, no less.
It’s been a while since my heart cried your name or whispered
“I love you”. It’s been a while since I lost sleep over you, or felt warmth in
your voice. It’s been a while since I saw a million stars in your eyes or felt
the tingles of a single touch…
But, my dearest Mars, your absence has thickened my skin,
cooled my heart and opened my mind. There is a sense of peace and serenity,
that I forgot I had- a sense of fulfilment that comes from learning to just
be.
Until we meet again...
Love,
C
