My fingers are unable to keep up with the thoughts blazing in my mind.

Tonight, we tried to salvage that piece of you that you entrusted to me. Our technology betrayed us both and I was left empty... watching that piece of you get erased while being completely powerless to stop it. Disappointment hit. Hard.

We spent the remaining 5 hours ensuring that the little that was left was preserved the best way we knew how. We did our best and are left with half of your work and no more. But it is all we could do.

Time and fate seem to have their own agenda, and happy is he who rides on the wave of it and catches the right moments at the right times... an art only learnt with time itself.
