But here is what I want to say:

In the Absence of Evidence to the Contrary, I go towards this

I believe your life was a prayer,

An Ark of Attention, which lives on in us and prays through us.

And so when I think of you, I feel some grace.

When I remember to listen like you did, care like you did,

When the candles are lit, and the hands are clasped, and the tears fall,

There is hope, and there is love, and there is You.
