today

we all know what today is - the first Valentine's Day when B and I -could- have been together.... if not for me.

she's no doubt already received greetings of love from her soon to be betrothed. and her lover will no doubt bestow his own greetings on her sometime today as well.

she and i should be spending this day together. it's because of me that we're not. my life's goal is to rectify that situation. actually, that's not quite true. that would be my greatest wish - to rectify the situation and for us to be together, as we should be. 

my life's goal is to somehow make up to her, in some small measure, the hurt and the pain i've put on her, caused her.

if i can do that and someday hear in her words or her voice that i've been able to do that, then i will have succeeded. i won't stop, because her hurt will never go away completely. but i'll know that i've done some small bit of good.

if she were to someday let me into her life again and choose to be together, then THAT will be the granting of my life's greatest wish.
