. . . It’s hard to describe the rush I get when I’m riding him, we are flying through the charged purple sky, the wind in my hair. His hooves light kisses on the black grass. We round the bend and I let go and we are back at the track… I close my eyes in ecstasy and imagine my troubles trying to keep up with us, but we are too fast. I ask him to stop. It is late and time to sober up. We are both panting as we walk our last lap and wait for reality to catch up with us. It’s like a dream, like a drug, but its real. …..I love you Axe”
I still remember your face so calm and smooth. I ran my fingers thru your hair and stopped to kiss you everywhere. Death lay upon you and there I lay too. Why did it all have to end so soon? It hurt me so much to see you in pain. I wanted so much to hold you but I couldn’t. I’m sorry so very sorry.
I tried to hold on but they dragged me away. But don’t worry, we’ll meet again someday.
We all cried a tear today. We all knew. Poseidon held me near but I wanted to be with you.
The night you died, a part of me died too.
