Muse- Tricen

There shall rarely be such a beautiful muse to me as this- my darling, Tricen. Though, the years that have passed, you are now a man...

I keep a photo of us close to my heart and it will follow me wherever I go- along with my prayers for you always.

I met you during an outreach from my church and we bonded right away. You asked me to take you home with me. Oh - my love I wish I could have ! maybe I should have? but at the age of. 17 I felt so ill equipped .

I came back to visit you regularly- much to my parent's chagrin and I relished in your prescience.

One cold November day I came to visit - you and your brother were outside playing in too large underwear. I said,"aren't you cold?" and you said yes, so I entered into your house, stepped over your mother passed out on the floor, past a large man doing something in the corner, up into your bedroom. There I found warm clothing, jackets and gloves but no boots...I think I remember tying plastic bags around your feet before I left.

 

The paths of my life lead me away from you, but hardly a day has gone by that I don't think of you and pray for you. 

Into the great wide open of this Internet, this crazy world, the tear stained face I have typing this... Please, let Tricen be doing well and please surround him with love.
