Chapter 1

Sometimes, it’s a heavy weight upon my chest, withholding every breath.

Sometimes, it’s a strangers smile, a laugh, and it’s like you never left.

I want the everyday questions answered.

Your wisdom, and how do you know?

It’s a deprivation, a forfeiture

Of all you are when you’re not there.
