I remember

the stars...

Hylton Murray-Philipson

I remember

the stars in the sky when I asked you to marry me. How the heavens leapt for joy. And I remember my fingers sliding over your coffin. That last lingering touch. My heart sinking to the bottom of an ocean of tears.

I remember

09/10/2015, diagnosis day. Agreeing to live as normally as we could for as long as we could. Not being able to make it better. Sobbing in the little room.

Your first...

I remember

Your first seizure, feeling destroyed. Leaving marks on your arm after picking you up from the floor. Saying goodbye.
