Ushering unfamiliar souls into the warmth of shared dialogue and weaving unseen connections between kindred spirits. At the outset, ๐ฌ๐ resembled those shiny things in the skyโ๐ง๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ฉ, ๐ช๐ฃ๐ง๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก๐, ๐ฎ๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ๐๐ซ๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ก๐ฎ ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐จ๐๐๐ฉ.
We forged celestial patterns invisible to all others.
With your sweet, comforting words, it feels like a warm embrace. Together, we etched constellations no one could see. ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ช๐๐๐ฉ ๐ ๐ฌ๐๐จ ๐ก๐ค๐จ๐ฉ, ๐๐ช๐ฉ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐๐ง๐ ๐ ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐งโ๐ ๐๐ข ๐ก๐ค๐จ๐ฉ, ๐๐ช๐ฉ ๐ฃ๐ค๐ฉ ๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช

Where are the, โgood nights,โ that we used to shareโthe ones that whispered, โsee you in my dreams?โ What happened to the, โgood mornings,โ that meant, โrise and shine, you have a day to slay?โ
What happened to the story we wroteโwhy do the characters feel like strangers, their actions unfamiliar in the tale we once knew so well?
I miss your touch, your hands. I miss your eyes and how they roved up and downโalways making me feel seen. ๐ ๐ข๐๐จ๐จ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐จ๐ค ๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก๐ฎ ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฉ ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐จ ๐ข๐ฎ ๐๐๐๐ง๐ฉ ๐๐๐๐, ๐ข๐ฎ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐จ ๐จ๐๐๐ ๐, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ข๐ฎ ๐จ๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ก. It makes me panic; restlessly running around while at the same time it freezes me in placeโunmoving.
Then, out of curiosity and growing despair, I questioned you and replied, "My parents saw us. They donโt want me to see you again. Iโm sorry.โ

I can't put it into words, but books have recorded itโthe same story, a different century.

The stars may not have aligned for us, but I am endlessly grateful that we metโeven only for a moment. I hope one day we will cross again into characters we want to become and until then, our half-written story rests in the quiet corners of my heart.
I now canโt seem to identify if what I feel is longing or dread and I am not certain if I want to know.
As I look out the window, and look up at the night sky, I wonder if you would be staring at the same moon, constellations, and colorful lights of New Yearโs skyโthinking of me as I think of you.

This upcoming New Year brings the promise of new beginnings, but it also carries echoes of what could have been. As the clock strikes midnight, I close my eyes and whisper a wishโfor you, for me, and the chance of another chapter beneath these same stars.
