At the edge of your grief and the beginning of mine,where his loneliness intersects with hers,a little ways past our illusions about how perfect this life should be –somewhere in the gorgeous, throbbing fullness of our humanity,we are going to unite – We just need to find that placewhere our joys and sorrows dance togetherunder […]
