Every Day
Every day without her is a struggle. Every day she is not safe by his side, he can't focus a hundred percent on the task at hand. She always creeps into his mind, into his thoughts, into his heart.
Her face is burned into his mind.
Every day that passes him by and every day she is gone one more day than the last is a day that what he is and who he is begins to fade and die. On those days he loses himself and loses sight of what he knows and believes. How can he remember anything when all that matters to him is her?
Every day, he wishes he could take her place so that she might live another day, if not with him than with the knowledge that he cared about her enough to sacrifice himself in order to save her.
Every day, he regrets not telling her that he loved - still loves - her.
