I watched out the window. The snow drifted slowly to the ground. I could hear children playing in the distance, but it didn’t make me smile.

I had not been in the Christmas mood for years now. I saw no reason to smile or laugh. I hadn’t even seen my family since my birthday had passed. Nothing had felt the same since you left me.

You told me you wanted me to be happy, and I usually would, but when I see the snow falling down, all I can think about is you. I miss you so much. I wish you had never left, but I know you are better now. Not in any pain.

I still miss you, though, and when Christmas comes around and the snow is falling down. All I can think about is how much you mean to me. And how I have not been the same since you passed.

I hope someday to see you again, but for now, I think I’ll just sit and watch the snow and hope you are happy in your new home.
