In the exact instant you want to give up, you can go through a whole lifetime.
“There are days when I just want to leave or let him die”.
There is too much to lose: a challenge to be solved with a clean cut slash.
Perhaps the day of the last goodbye has come?
The house on fire, the leather jacket, even the years of adolescence.
Then something or someone, unexpectedly, changes the course of events.
He, or she, appears on tiptoe, almost unnoticed, and
like an unexpected guest and map engineer, rewrites the boundaries of our self.
He opens our eyes, rubs them with briny wisdom. He offers his hands open as hope.
“Leave? Let him die? What should I do?”
