“Everything came back at once. Laughing, talking, holding each other close. The way he always touched my cheek before he kissed me. Warmth. Safety.
I lost my grip on my fork and it clattered onto my plate. Shawn must have been lost in thoughts of his own, because that startled him. He reached for me across the table, touching my hand. "Dawn, Are you all right?"
So many things that had been just out of my reach came into focus.
"You're my Shawn."
Shawn was smiling. "Yes. I always have been. You see me now."
I nodded and realized I had tears running down my face. Shawn reached out again and put his whole hand around mine, engulfing it.”

“Music has been central to the way Shawn and I expressed our feelings. The songs we shared remained so linked to him that they always took me back in time. In fact, when I was alone, I had taken to talking to him when our songs came on. It wasn't sappy 'Oh, I miss you' sort of talk. Instead, when a song like Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty came on, I could swear I would hear his voice in my head saying something like, "Do you remember where we were when we heard this song the first time?”

“Shawn, I love you." His mouth fell open a little bit. He said,"I will never leave you unless you send me away."
"Why would I want to do that? The best part of my life has been when I'm with you. I love you and I want you with me, always."
"I love you too, Dawn. I just want you to know what I have always known: I will never leave you unless you send me away. We've both had so many losses in our lives, I want to be there to be one thing that you know you can count on, and that's me.”
