From this moment…

From this moment — that was our song.

The one that was supposed to play at our first wedding dance.

Every time I heard it, my eyes filled with tears.

Tears of happiness. Tears of love. Of hope.

And now?

Tears of sadness. Of loss. Of the silence that remained between us.

How quickly the meaning of “from this moment on” changed…

How quickly we went from “almost married” to strangers.

You — a stranger I know better than myself.

Whose scent I recognize from a mile away.

Whose shape I can draw even blindfolded.

A stranger who was once my home.

Life, from this moment, goes on.

But it’s no longer ours.

Now mine begins. Yours begins.

“Ours” — no longer exists.

From this moment, you are “the one.”

But not the one I will hold by the hand until we are gray and old.

But the one who taught me the most important life lesson.

And yes, there is truth in the song…

From this moment, as long as I live, I will love you.

Or maybe not that long.

But you will certainly remain my deepest wound.

The most sincere and purest love.

The sweetest “good morning”, the warmest “good night”.

I will keep going from this moment on… But never completely without you in my heart.
