The lucky one

A/N: Spoilers for Ark of Truth in this. Just a short little drabble-type fic that had to be written.

It's over. I set him free. His life will be better without me, I know that, but it still hurts. He is, despite himself, a good man. He's made some bad choices in his life, but I won't be the one throwing stones. My own life has been riddled with mistake after mistake. Maybe if things had been different, we would have stood a chance.

Perhaps this is my curse. My penance for all the wrong I've done to others. I'm damned to be alone. No, that's not right. It's much worse than that.

I am damned to be completely in love with a man who will never have me. That's my gift and my curse.

I smiled sadly and waved as I watched my former husband walk through the gate and out of my life. Tomin is the lucky one. He's getting off easy . I don't have that luxury. There is no letting go, no moving on.

Daniel Jackson owns my heart and soul. And he'll never give it back. The funny thing is I'm okay with that.
