A quick oneshot. Getting back into my writing slowly.
There was a time when all was well.
The sun seemed to shine a little brighter, the rainy days were short, and the perfect amount of wind would blow through our hair. We would smile and laugh, tease each other all day; and then come home to lie close to one another. We would share intimate moments and make love with all the passion in our hearts.
As I open my eyes and brush my hand to your side of the bed, I am reminded that is all in the past. I am reminded of a loss too great. My hand clenched the sheets while I made my best attempt to stop the tears.
I failed.
The cold sheets, so lacking from your warmth, bring back memories that sting my eyes with tears.
"Delic.. My Delic."
I could still see him now, leaning over me with that grin on his face. He would tell me to cheer up.
'You're too beautiful to have such a sad look on your face.'
He would wipe away my tears carefully and do his best to cheer me up.
Thinking of that only brought more tears to my eyes.
I could do nothing more than bury my face into his pillow, breathe in his scent, and let out my sorrow.
My name is Tsugaru. And there was a time when all was well.
Those times are gone.
