Sitting at the sidebar

Two weeks before Leah died, I sat on the edge of her bed. By then her words were hard to make sense of, but at one point she said, "The door of the school is closing."

"Yes," I said, "the door is closing, but another one is opening."

She looked into my eyes and said, "I'll have to remember that."

This song is from an album titled, The Door, and I dedicate it to her.
