I can feel happiness all around me, enveloping me...

but somehow the darkness still reigns inside me.

A person can be unhappy with what they have... even if by many standards what they have is pretty good. Their job may suck, they may be tight on money.

A person can then be handed a glorious treasure- a great new job that pays more than double of any they've had before... the kind of job they'd wanted for some time. With it came a renewed sense of pride, pride that had been lost all too long ago- and was never really regained.

There is so much happiness in my life now...

but what is all that without love?

To me?........... Not a thing, friends... not a thing.

The girl I cannot erase from my brain... cannot remove from my heart... will never be mine again. I have known this for some time, and have come to accept it... but it doesn't mean I don't still feel that hurt...

or that I can see the pain ever going away... or even subsiding...

*sigh*

Some people in our lives quickly come and go. Others, stay for a while, some forever and others not so long, each leaving a print upon our heart. And we are never the same.

I hope you reach a point where you are able to see your life is better because you met this girl, and even though she may not be in your future, she helped shape it by her contact with you.

Each person is all they will ever need.
But they are rarely all they will want.

Time is the answer my friend, give it a chance to work.
