i thought you were charles and i was your ray.
but charles didn't ever leave ray.

|   polaroid, ink, gregory's polaroid and chairs, watercolour & leaves from flowers i received when gracie died (12" x 12")

she died and i knew i would miss her forever.
did you ever understand that as you gave me
a metal box filled with your love for me. every
piece was your enigma presented to me, strong
and fallen. i loved you then. still looking over my
shoulder to see what pain was coming next. i
couldn't be still. (and i'm sorry.)

is that why you left?
