Sweet fire

Checking my email has become a routine, even though I know deep down that there won't be any messages from her. We have already said our goodbyes. It's difficult, it hurts, but what else can we do? We find ourselves longing for a connection even in our separation. The tiniest bit of connection has the power to fill the void in our hearts, which relentlessly yearns for each other. It's truly a curse to miss someone so deeply that forgetting them seems impossible, and it brings immense sadness.

Embrace the pain of longing, for it is love's sweet fire. — Rumi
