where were you when...

fictionali wish every day that i could have been with my city when it was broken. i wished i could have been at union square, when the peace vigils took place, when new york was at its most wounded, and at its greatest. i wish this selfishly, because i know that i couldn't have done anything to help. but also because i feel foolish feeling that it was an important, earth shaking event in my life since i wasn't even there.
and also because i always have this fear, each time i lie awake next to someone i love, letting my hands play gently over the patterns in their skin. i am always afraid that this will be the last time. that the moment will never live again, and the memory will be a paltry painful shade.
i read this, and i didn't know what to say. i can imagine it only too well.
