The day might have even passed by me. It’s gone so quickly.
A year without a beaming smile. A year without the hat.
It seems so far away and yet it seems so close. It doesn’t seem like a year has gone by.
I guess this is both good and bad. Good because there is a place in my heart that will be perpetually filled by a kinship and sense of love and brotherhood I’ve never felt on this level from anyone else. Bad because I feel like I’ve let something slip away from me and almost become commonplace.
I look at my son… born on 9/3 and given the name Aiden Christopher…
And I know that small piece shall always shine on and live on in my heart.
I miss you dearly, elqahar.
