Woke.

I sleep in his clothes.

A simple way to keep his scent close.

While sleeping, I heard him yell “I love you!”

My lips formed a smile before my eye lids could move.

An unfamiliar voice on speaker phone replied back “I love you too”.

... I woke up to find myself beneath six feet of dirt.

Buried me while I was still wearing his shirt.
