Joel

Yesterday would have been Joel's 52nd birthday. He was my high school sweetheart. We were friends and then we were lovers. We wound up as great friends.

I remember how we cried when he found out he's HIV positive. All I have are memories of him. We had our differences but we would always come back to us.

Joel died of AIDS back in 2002 or around that time. I kinda wanted to get together and live our lives together. But the Grim Reaper came and took him from me.

I was in Michigan when he passed. His partner wrote me about it and we picked clothes for him to wear. I also gave him a heads up on his favourite music.

I was unable to come to SA to say good-byes because Steve wouldn't let me go. Creep.

I miss him still.
