It was today

A picture perfect moment, there's the sun, and then there's you. Gleaming eyes, the perfect smile, the enthusiasm in your voice, and I knew the reason why. It was a moment I will never forget. I was reminded how great things were. 

It was a one-way street that I took. One which I regretted terribly. 

Maybe its for the best. I convinced myself, though my heart says otherwise.

I know someday, somebody out there will then replace that place. And they will be the nothing I never was.

Perhaps in a parallel universe, its a happy ending. Maybe therefrom I can get some comfort.
