You weren't just anyone—

you reached into me like no one ever had,

and it's impossible for me to go back

to who I was,

the way you fit into the places

I didn't know were empty.

Marked, I look for you in the quiet,

in the spaces where you used to be,

and I know it's something

that can't be replaced,

because I wouldn't keep trying

to find a way for you

to stay in my life

against all odds,

and that's all the proof I need

to know this wasn't

just a fleeting moment in time.

But something that was meant to be,

because a soul should never be

this touched and left wondering.
