Last night in my dreams, Micah was sitting at my kitchen table eating a bowl of cheerios. I ran up to him and hugged him from behind, and he laughed and I laughed and then we were both laughing there together in the kitchen, hugging. It was such a happy moment.

Sometimes the cloud lifts and I fully comprehend how bad this is.
I can't believe Micah is not here and I will never see him again. It's something I cannot warp my mind around. Sometimes it makes me question his existence to begin with. I have these amazing memories of this incredible, warm, happy, bright time in my life; where I laughed and loved and lived...and I have all the pictures, messages, clothing, documents to prove it. Yet how can the origin of this be taken away so quickly, and the things around it remain so strong? How can I have everything else but the one person that brought everything else? I can't comprehend that.
