My aunt passed away
almost a year ago.
And I was never super close with her
but the things I remember
are important.
My whole family
Aunt Florence
Uncle Rodger
Aunt Debbie
and Romy
came down
and Stayed with Me, Ma, Joci and Grandma
when I was a kid.
I remember she kissed
me
and hugged me
in our living room.
And I felt the love
without words;
it just came out of her body
in waves.
Her small voice
was loud with it.
I am beginning to learn
Yukimi
like a backstory
and
her body
teaches me about love
in a different
but completely nostalgiac
way.
