Goodbye

Remember the night when we had a blackout in the city, it was just you and me alone for hours. You kept me entertained, made me laugh until I fell asleep beside you. Not once did you make me realize the loneliness I felt inside. That night, I didn’t let go of you for a minute.

And I miss you. Those numerous trips we made together, the times you calmed me down on a flight when it took off and landed, the times you put me to sleep to make time go by quicker. You always gave me all your attention. We were one and nobody could tear us apart… You knew me in ways no one else did.

I know there were times I treated you wrong. I ignored you because of my work and friends. But I promise you, there wasn’t a day that went by when I didn’t think of you.

I miss your body and the way I could see myself in you. Your skin so smooth, I’d hate to take my hands off you. I remember how your body always got so cold when winter came in and how warm it got when I’d hold you close. Just once more…I want to run my hands over you and watch you light up with every touch.

I cried when I saw your lifeless body lying there. I wept when they told me there was nothing they could do to save you. I wanted them to feel just how much I need you in my life. I pleaded with them to try just once more. But they just held my hand and told me I had to bid you my final goodbye.

Maybe this is the way it was meant to end. I dreamt of my children playing with you. Oh how I would tell them the things you have done for me. You were better to me than I was to myself. You carried for me my bad memories, my tears and my smiles. You added to my every joy.
No matter who comes into my life next, they could never take your place. I miss you. No one can fill that empty space on my bed like you did…

Goodbye… my friend, my companion, my darling iPod. You will be sorely missed.
