Just when you begin to believe you mean something to someone, wham. All of a sudden, it turns out you didn't have as much impact in their life as you'd thought. Or hoped, I guess.
Not that anything happened, or would have happened, but in a large way, our time together every day made...well...my day. I'm usually able to break through a person's shell, get to their inner heart in record time. I understand them, and they learn to like that.
This enigma of a person never broke. He remains a mystery to me, and there's something very defeating about that. I failed. I was water off the back of his ducky life. Barely making a ripple. And here I am, mourning my loss, feeling lonely already.
He had a nice smile and eyes that sparkled sometimes. Wishing you well, sir. I will miss you.
