Submission 98

Dear Dan,

Not a day goes by where I don't think about you. Where I think about us. What we could have been, where we could have gone, what we could have done...together. But now I am alone.

I miss you terribly, and I often find myself willing you to come back, wishing I could just have one more day, hour or even second, to tell you how much I love you.

It's almost been a year and the time has flown. I think a lot about if there was anything I could have said or done to have made you stay.

I know there probably wasn't.

I tried to save you, I tried so hard. I don't think I will ever forget that day when I found you. My heart was broken, I knew it was too late. I would never be the same.

I hope you are now at peace and the pain has gone. That you are still drinking pretentious beers and telling those awful jokes. I try my hardest to live for you, to go to the places we used to go to, hoping you are somehow there.

I miss you, I always will.

Love you bubba.
