Just before twilight… Dear V,
It’s early in the morning and the sun is just barely hinting that it may come soon. It’s taking its time like it’s afraid commit bringing warmth and light the Earth.
Im still awake. Haven’t slept night and I can think of is the floating thing between my lungs where my heart uses be. Somewhere outside my bedroom I can hear the air conditioner clicking over.
It’s moments like this, in the darkness, just before Dawn that the reality of my situation slowly creeps into the back of my brain and starts a low buzzing noise there.
Outside a bird is asking: Poo-to-tweet?
Silence.
Nothing.
There are events that happen to you throughout the course of your existence that separate your life into two sections. “Before this happened,” and, “After this happened.” Who you are on either end is never the . The event fundamentally changes you.
I have a horrible suspicion that we are here on Earth find out that everything we love will be taken from us. Most likely due an error in high places rather than by design. What do you do after that happens? Better luck tomorrow? Im struggling to find the answer but fear there may not be one.
Im in bed reaching over the sheets and remembering your hand won’t be there to find. The sound of your breathing is absent from the room. I miss that. I miss a lot of things.
