It still amazes me how you can get an ache from anything. From listening to the beginning note to what used to be your favorite song, or a line from a new one that just hits a nerve you never knew you had. From seeing just a flicker of a 3 second clip of a movie you watched with certain someone while in the middle of flipping through the channels searching for something to watch. Reading one word or one single phrase that you were used to hearing a lot but now haven’t heard in a long time. From the scent of some nobody you pass by on the street that only reminds you of somebody you used to know, somebody you wish you still knew. From being within the location of where you had your happiest moments. From suddenly remembering a memory that somehow spiraled from a thought so unrelated, but somehow still found a way to connect you, that your thoughts always seem to go back to. From anything and everything that was considered *ours* - not yours or mine, but ours - all the things we had together. From seeing someone who looks exactly like him or her but isn’t exactly him or her but just some beautiful stranger.

And it’s an ache that both hurts, yet yearns for something more - whether it’s be to be healed, or to go back in time and redo what can’t be redone. It’s an ache you can only hope will go away, but sometimes it never does. And all it becomes is a smaller ache, a pinch so minuscule, the feeling is fleeting - or maybe it’s just become something you got used to living with like a permanent scar across your heart.
