I lost you like losing a fantasy.

We will never again touch each other distractedly, nor will we allow ourselves to enjoy the intimate being that the other holds in their complexion.

There will never again be a sunset like ours, nor a seagull like the one we admire.

"My heart began to grow disillusioned about all the hard work I had put so much effort into under the sun."

"No one gains safety through wickedness, But the righteous will never be uprooted."

(Book of Wisdom)

"There is a way of life that suits us better."

(Aristotle)

"These words capture the complexity of unexpressed feelings and words left unspoken, so often for fear of the impact they can have.
