The Night We Finally Let Go

It was our anniversary, and we both knew it would be different this time. The divorce papers had been signed but not yet finalized. I hadn't expected anything to happen that night, but the wine flowed freely, memories lingered heavily. Before long, our defenses were down, and the familiar spark of desire flickered back into life. We stumbled upstairs, breathless and uncertain, only to find ourselves lost in each other's arms once more. It was both a farewell and a reminder of what had been. Now, months later, it still leaves me feeling both empty and oddly complete.
