Wonder
We met at the very start. Our first video date became every day, sometimes multiple times a day. When we finally met, everything made sense. This time was for us, this was what we had been waiting for. The world was still, but the world was sunny for us. Every day our endless conversation brought us closer. Laughter, tears and smiles, everyday felt like a blessing. Like these moments came at the perfect time.
Until, lockdown conquered your mental health, and like so many others around us the world became too much. You had to leave me, to save yourself, and I admire the strength that takes.
I wonder why you haven’t returned my things I kept with you. I wonder if I’ll ever see them again. I wonder if I’ll ever see you again. I wonder, day in, day out.
