Eleven days I wrote to someone gone. Four of those days Amaru was sinking beside me, and I kept writing anyway, marking each day, because the days need marking and what was leaving needed to be seen before it left. The weight of both at once, the crossing still happening in words while the small body next to me was going low. Not trying to fix it. Just holding both things true at the same time, the way you hold a person when they are leaving and you cannot stop them.
