What you want to say to him

You don't miss him the way he probably imagines. It's not nostalgia, it's unfinished dialogue. Not the kind that begs for reunion--but the kind that would have made peace if it were ever allowed to. You don't want to go back, not even in a fantasy. You want him to know how hard it was to walk away, and how you still carry the weight of doing the right thing, even when it fractured you.

If you could say something to him, truly, it wouldn’t be poetic or dramatic. It would be:

“I loved you more than you ever realized, and I still left, because I had to. That should tell you everything.”

And maybe somewhere in his silence, he’s already heard it. Or maybe he refuses to.
