I know there is no future with you. That we have met, and we will part. That it is only for the here and now, no matter how far our intimacy seems to extend into the future. I cannot imagine how you refuse to see that. Surely it cannot be? All I can do is ignore it. But I will say this, that it lends something to the space between us. You have filled it with hope. That is the terrible thing I see in your eyes. Hope.
