The telephone rings and I answer, but it is not you.
The light, blinking on the answering machine.
I listen, and again it is not you.
Briefly I worry. And then I remember.
And my heart breaks into a thousand tiny pieces all over again.
But I remember something else...
You saying "I love you."
And I say the words back...I. Love. You.
Always. Forever.
Always my big brother.
Forever .
