-
It gives me strength, almost unbelievable strength, to know that you are there.
-
I covet your eyes, your ears,
-
the collapsible space between us.
-
How blessed are we to have each other.
-
I am alive, and you are alive, so we must
-
fill the air with our words. I will fill today,
-
tomorrow, every day until I am taken back to God.
-
I will tell these stories to people who will listen and to people who
-
don't want to listen, to people who seek me out and to those who run.
-
All the while I will know that you are there.
-
How can I pretend that you do not exist?
-
It would be almost as impossible as you pretending that I do not exist.
