“Maybe I’m asking the wrong questions,” I read, glancing at West. “Maybe I’ve known the answer all along: love.
“I once loved a woman. Once … no, I love her still. Her presence haunts the empty cells inside of me, weaving in and out of the dark crevices like a ghost seeking recognition. Death has always been my friend. Even now,
as I fight for life
, when I close my ears to the screams within, she makes her presence know. Bump-bump, goes my heart. But it is not my heart I hear in the silence of my unconscious mind. It is her laugh. Her moans and sweet call of me to come back to her. And I groan at the ache she manifests in my chest. Come back to me, she says. Return my love, she pleads.
“And I cry. Does she not know I already do? Does she not feel me rushing through her bloodstream like she soars through mine? Bump-Bump, she cries. And again, I cry back. Love me, I plead. Feel me, I beg. I am not without you, and you are not without me. We are together, even if we’re apart.
“But she does not see that,
because she does not see me.
“

I am watching
. Bump-bump.
I am there
