How do I encapsulate
how we loved each other?
When I say: I knew you loved me,
I can just as easily say: you knew I loved you.
The only way I have survived your death
is that I was forced to survive your illness
as you ebbed farther and farther away.
The only way I survive your absence
is to look in my own child's eyes,
and try to love her
as well as you loved me.
