Today's the 5th anniversary of my son's death from a stroke.
He was 49 years old.
His mother had just turned 50 when she died of heart failure.
I'm a survivor--
haunted by multiple lifetimes of dissolving memories.
As long as my heart beats,
Conscious or unconscious--
In dreams awake or in dreams asleep--
Aware of all that they have lost and I--
For where there's life there's
