What are you silent about

How many times have you fallen in love?

In life? In a loud laugh? In casual meetings and endless conversations? In the eyes that can see through you?

I looked into Chamberlain Davidson’s eyes the hundreds of thousands of times. But every moment I was overcome by the thought: «Why now?». 

It seemed to me that he would always be present in my life until he did disappear.

While he didn’t evaporate like a fictional story about a boy who changed me.

Now, 7 years later, I am learning to live again. I breathe deeply and look at the world with a different view, not paying attention to chaotic thoughts that rush at me like monkeys in reserve.

I haven’t betrayed anyone but myself. Only now I managed to find the strength in myself for the one who opens the doors to this world holding my hand; who contemplates and feels every breath of the wind with me; who understands the universe looking into my eyes.

I am Amelia Claremont, and I keep thousands of memories about everyone who once broke into a storm in my life. I swipe salty drops from eyelashes, until the person who hugs me in the darkness, creates a new story with its immutable truth.
