There are people that visit your life that make an indelible impression. They will never understand the impact they had on you. They will never know how much you think about them even many years later. Those most stuck in my mind, affected me in such a deep manner, yet, even then, I knew, it could never be. It probably never should have been.

Years later, a stray thought, a peaceful dream, and the thoughts of what was, is alive again. The time’s wisdom says those days are gone. So is she. The mind acts on its own and wonders. Where is she? What is she doing? Is she happy? Does she ever think of me? The answers, will never come.

It is not about her. It is about you. You were there for your season. That season passed. The winds blew and the leaves scattered. Even then, you knew, it could never be. You knew, it probably never should have been.
