March 2nd

Today got harder. I'm starting to miss him more. The excitement's still there, just emptiness follows. I feel his beard scratch my skin like prickly sandpaper. His sweatshirt has his faint smell lingering on it and I can feel his arms wrap around me. I appreciate our time together more. All the little silly things. If this is starting to get hard I wonder what the schooling can bring...I guess you never really do know what you have until it's gone..Even if it's not impermanent.
