Found your baby picture today. Snuggled up with your mom in a razai. Smiling like only you can smile. Took my breath away. It was like a monkey wrench right through the heart. For the first time in a long time, I smiled without having to.

Then I closed the album. Placed it in the shoe box full of you and went back to being alive.

Or dead.

Can’t really tell the difference anymore.
