Elaine.

Last year you told me how much you loved lilies because they remind you of your mother, and today I'm laying them on your grave.

I don't think I'll ever be able to articulate how I felt with you.
I knew from the first night we talked, and the first night we didn't.

I didn't believe in love before I met you.
You changed how I view things.
You changed me, tiny.
The last thing anyone had thought could happen.
And you did it so easily.

I believe we were soulmates, and now I'm gonna have to live without my other half.

Pansy is not the same anymore. Her once bright eyes have turned a dull grey.
Blaise and Theo argue a lot, they miss you.
But nothing can describe the way I miss you, the pain I'm in. How every part of my body aches every time I have to wake up without you beside me.

You're always there, within everything I do, and it's okay, it just hurts not being able to tell you that anymore.

Tell you that I hear your laugh in every chord on my piano.
And that I see your smile every time the sun shines a bit brighter than usual.

I keep thinking about your soft skin, and how beautifully it collided within mine.
I can't help but hope you listen to my cries at night, so you know how deeply I miss you.

It angers me that you're gone.
It angers me that it was you instead of me.
You didn't deserve this, none of this.
You fought so hard everyday.

I always told you "see you on the other side" but I never thought you would get there before me.

Falling in love with you was magical,
but the pain is miserable.
I am miserable.

I don't know how I will live without you.
Without seeing your goofy smile again.
Your small frail hands.
Your touch.

I need you Elaine, don't you see?
Why can't you some back to me?
I miss you so much.

You swore to the moon you would never leave me.
But then again the moon changes.
And as you left, so did a part of me.

I love you forever and always, with every part of my soul.

I love you, Elaine.

Maybe in another lifetime we will be together.

Forever yours,
Draco.
