Despite Our Highs and Lows as Earthlings

Dear Rhys

The world has kept spinning without you in it, and I fucking hate it. I want it to stop, I want it to mourn you with me, but it’s abandoned me. It doesn’t seem possible that it’s been five months since you were here, because I didn’t know that I could hold my breath that long. I’m more scared than ever of what will happen when I exhale.
