Sometimes I go to his Facebook to look at his pictures, to see remnants of his life left online. I don't want to forget. To read his favorite quotes, written in his own handwriting, like the Bukowski one here, that means something altogether different now that he's gone. I scroll through my phone to see pictures he sent to me, read his messages, watch videos to hear his voice.
I'm writing about you, but I don't want to share it yet. I write it for me, because I don't want to forget.
I'll bet Death did tremble when you showed up.
"We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." - Charles Bukowski
