10 years

Today wasn't as hard as i thought it would be; I am equally disappointed as relieved.

I was going to get flowers and leave them on the step of the church, but the task seemed fruitless- why should I be the only one who cares that it was our wedding anniversary?

The day passed quickly, and it was more important to me to get wine for the fire night than it was to honor any memory of us.

What happens to the vows, the feeling of seeing you and only you among 200 family and friends? What happens to the memories of each daughter emerging from you like crocuses?

Are they buried only in me?

I am so glad that you are not around to answer these questions.
