Before He Left

I remember his face perfectly. Though this was before he left.His photo hangs on the wall inside my mind. Never forgotten, but always clean.

But the fear in my head is there to. The fear of him leaving me and never coming back was strong. I've always hated that feeling. Yet I loved looking at his image.

There of voices of other people. Telling me not to be with him. But he is my imprint. He is my other half. My everything. Even though we were always so scared to hug each other sometimes, I wish I would ignore the fear and let him hold me in his arms.

He reassured me. Telling me he would never leave. The fear of him leaving is so close to being gone. Tears streamed down my warm cheeks.

Being near him is calming. Him being near me ws peaceful. I told myself I never wanted to break his heart because I had loved him so much. No. Never again. I will never break his heart. It hurt me so much.

The love for him in me was strong. The sound of his voice was strong. The peacefulness in me when he was near was so strong. I'm sure he won't leave me. I'm so sure now. I know he loves me. Yet, I'm pretty sure I love him even more than he or anyone could ever imagine.
