After this November will be the most dreaded month not because it was when I lost you but when I knew it was coming, looming, and this time lightening wasn’t dancing in the distance it was creating it. Collecting moments of you like storing food in a bomb shelter for when I’m at war with your new hand watch for not letting us work. Every time the hand ticks it is moving me closer to a time without you and everyday is watching the hourglass of us run out. Despite this, if I could live with you in a calendar filled with Novembers, I would. But I can’t so before you go, will you watch 44 sunsets with me?
