I once was in love with a man, a man so beautifully haunting that his memory still lingers in my mind. He spoke of heart wrenching songs and promised eternity. That man is not here anymore. No, he did not die and this is not a love story gone wrong. This is life. My dad left my mom and traveled halfway around the world when I was a six month old baby. I’ve never given much thought to love let alone think that someday someone will love me. And I was right.
