Happy birthday. I wish I could tell you this to your face. Did I ever get to tell you when you were around?
You got away but I need you. Couldn’t you have tried to fight a little bit more to stay with me? Did you give it your all? Did it hurt that much? I’m sorry I couldn’t save you.
Mommy, I don’t know what to do. I can’t take it anymore. I know you know what I’m talking about. I know you see. You know my heart. It’s so black these days. Hurt. This is what it’s like.
Mommy, I’m sorry. I’m sorry if I can’t keep going. Don’t be mad. I just need your arms again.
Remember that night we stayed up late watching tv? I was lost in your arms as we rested on the sofa, singing along to tunes from that movie about that crazy human-eating plant. I used to make you watch it over and over and over. You never complained. You always watched it with me.
Let’s go back to that. Meet me. I’m coming soon.

Your mommy sounded like a remarkable woman. She raised you well and taught you how to be a young man. I'm so so so proud to have a friend like you in my life! She's smiling down mija! Always remember that!
