What he left me with

He is a beautiful man

As I listen to his stories…

War,

Muslim,

Gay,

Death,

Romance,

Hard work,

He inspires me to be better

I love him, but he doesn’t love me

He has inspired me to be a better person

I choose to be…

Hardworking,

Fight for human rights,

Spread awareness,

Help others,

Embody love and peace,

Practice compassion

2 years later...

silence,

I still am inspired by you every day

This is intense... but it leaves the reader wanting to know more-what exactly happened? You have a lot of powerful imagery here and strong emotion.
