division of my thoughts (in the quantity of: time)
i spend half my “thinking time” being nostalgic sighing and remembering the smell of the childhood home in wintertime or the mischief that my brother and i would devise or soccer practice on saturday mornings or falling in love for the first time or having no worries and no job thinking of summer holidays that were paid for by parents beaches, bike-rides, heavy school-kid crushes and i...

“you’ll never know how much you care
until you see their empty chair”
