To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.
I have and continue to love a person who is acutely finite to me. Almost every day for one reason or another I fear she may slip away from me. In fact I think I've had the opportunity to hold her against my bones in saying goodbye maybe three times which to me feels three times too many.
I ache for her and the day she will stay with me until nature dictates it is time to let her go.
I fear that day will never come
