You know when people say time heals? It's the most superficial line ever that people think is comforting. 

5 years tomorrow. 5 years to the exact day I lost you. The days are flying by and it still seems like only yesterday that I had you by my side, advising me about what to do; still seems like just the other day you were laughing at me because I found law cases funny whilst I was revising; seems like it was yesterday you were taking the mick because I was making my room even more pink than it already was. 

It's Eid Ul Adha tomorrow. Earlier on in the year, people were saying Eid may fall on 9/11 but when it was confirmed it's on the 12th, I felt so numb. How can we celebrate on the same day our hearts broke into a million pieces? And every other Eid, it's like how can we celebrate, without you here? 

Time doesn't heal. Time just gives you another day to get on with the same pain and the same heartbreak.
