My ex rang.

We get along now

well. But this is not the story I am telling.

My niece has a brain tumor.

24 years old, gone from my life

eight years now.

the impact was smacking

Like the sting of those first days after

that first phone call

that said those words

that shifted that world

that became death.

Yet life. But

that is not the story I am telling.

Her before life is over.

the one she’s lived

before.

she will never be the person she was the 8765 days

before.

from this day forward she’s given the choice how much

she will live the life she’s got in this

after.

As I did

2920 days ago

after.

that death that day.

The smacking news reminded me

I died to the person I was

before.

This is the story I am telling….

How alive am I, today?

How full

big

real

alive

is my

after?

in love.
