“My life lacked shape until it was given one by her love. My heart always looked out for a whisper of her presence. I wished for her to meet me, to be next to me but I belonged to the past and she belonged to the future. There wasn't a place where we could reside together. I held onto the fragments of her memories like dead petals of flowers placed in an old book. I didn't want to let go of her until I reached her. I searched for her with hope in my bones. I would meet her someday in this world or another. I would meet her where the sun cast its first ray on the darkness.”
