I’m sitting here thinking about how to name my child after you.
The one I’ve yet to have.

You’re not even gone yet and already I’m trying to find away to keep
even the tiniest part of you here.

Even if it’s just your name.

More than anybody you know how much I hate change.
whether it’s the
seasons or
the color of the lights on the tree.
I think the only way I’ll make it through
is if I pretend you moved to El Paso.
