April 25th

There’s never a day I’m not thinking of you, little sweetheart, but some of them are even more keen than others and today is one of them. Of all our years together this day will always hold both great joy and great sadness. 

One year one this date we had a wonderful weekend in Davis together, you took me to see DCfC in Sacramento and made epic cupcakes for us. And just two years later on the same date I was speaking at your memorial. 

I remember being in the car with you once and you telling me that you thought that we had ten years before your health would fail again - you were so hyper-aware of your own mortality - and that you wanted me, after you passed, to listen to our music and think of you and also that you wanted me to speak at your service. I remember how the tears began burning my eyes when you said that and how I cried and told you I wanted to die before you. 

The words I did write and speak for you that day, that awful day, I returned to, recording this tribute for our album Sometimes in Dreams

I can’t say much more just now, little sweetheart, except that I love you with all my heart and soul and pray that we will be together sometime again soon and forever. With all of my love…
