i’m still here. i still blink at the sun. i still walk the same sidewalks and roads you once did and i wonder if your invisible footprints line up with mine in real time. and i wonder if i breathe your air and my lungs know whose it is and my chest thinks you’re still here. i wonder if the air knows your thoughts and if the footprints know all the places you’ve been to. i wonder if the sun blinks back at you and if it warms the back of your head. i still wonder about you. i still blink and breathe.
