I remember him. I don't have fond memories. I have memories of our time together, mostly of stupid things I did or said because I didn't know much about relationships back then. I don't ever want us to get back together. You might think he was awful because I'm saying this, but you'd be wrong. We were just so wrong for each other, it's weird. Can't really explain it.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
