What I Miss Most

I wonder what it is that I miss the most about you? I feel your spirit still. And in fact, we have become closer since you left. I think what I miss the most is your voice. I guess because it is the closest thing to, I would think, your biological signature when you were in your body. I have pictures of your face, and occasionally your eyes sparkle in them, and your smile widens and stiffens depending on my conversations with you. But your voice, those special sound waves that draw out the shape of your words, your voice is the only thing that I couldn’t keep from you.
