Feelings I've been trying to bury for years, you know, buried it under work, religion... even dating. We know how that worked out. But, you know, it was still there, underneath. The grief. Don't know what that means for me, just that I've been—I've been fooling myself to think that I could ignore it. Anyway, thank you—for coming out, for curing Alex.
