Finally got a letter.

"I was on the couch the night before you left...
You gave me two marker tattoos on my forearm
and two kisses on the forehead.

I was on your porch the morning you left...
The smoke sank into my skin while we
intertwined with cats in our laps.

I was lost in downtown the night you left...
We visited you in your hotel just before they
shaved your head and shipped you out.

Its been two weeks since you left...
I've never been so proud and scared
all at the same time. "
