Just like any other morning, I went to the kitchen when I woke up. With all the willingness to see you there as usual.
My mind tricked me because I thought I saw you there. Maybe you had not gone anyways. Maybe I had made myself miserable for nothing for all this time.
But soon it became clear that you had left the places you always loved. Or I thought you loved. Your presence was no longer a part of my life.
I could not accept this. I was used to seeing you every morning. You would always be there at this time, making breakfast for both of us. Now it was just emptiness, where you always stood.
I wanted to go back to bed and start from scratch again, hoping that this time you would appear in front of my eyes. But I did not. I just continued to walk to where you would be now and just stood there. If I fit in your space, then maybe I would fill the emptiness you left in my life with myself. I made the breakfast and sat on your chair too. Again, I filled your spot. I put my clothes in your closet too. So yes, I filled another spot of yours.
Wherever you would be, there I was now. Maybe that would help me fill in for you in my life. Maybe that would help me bring me in my life.
Some one’s absence create a biggest emptiness

Yes but maybe also an opportunity to fill it with better things.

I believe it rare in life for someone not to experience loss. I have many time to numerous to count. Yet I try to learn and grow from each. No matter the cause. To be a better person for myself and others along this journey I call life. There will always be a space within in you for them. At least that is the way it is for me. Especially if I develop strong feelings for them. They will always be there. Let them help you to continue forward in your journey that is life.

So well-put! Each loss is a lesson, I agree. And that is how we become better people towards others.
