Emptiness

The void is getting bigger now.

When I go to pick up coconut water from the fridge, I get two bottles. Just so I don't miss picking one up for him.

At the end of a day, I call someone (anyone, really) and wish them goodnight, just so I don't miss hearing it back. 

When I go to bed at night, I leave a pillow where he used to sleep. Just so I don't feel the emptiness when I wake in the middle of the night. 

What he did was wrong. But, does that mean that I never loved him? No. In fact, I still do. And, clearly, I miss him. I wish things could have been different.
