In the back of Stan's Cab

1/27/2023

I don't think

1/27/2023

I didn't know until later

1/27/2023

If I'd been paying attention

1/27/2023

Gave you up

1/27/2023

I mill about

1/27/2023

Say something

1/27/2023

The world is broken

1/27/2023

It's too loud inside

1/27/2023

Where have I been

1/27/2023

I'm sitting in the back seat

1/27/2023

Reconciliation was good

1/27/2023

There were six kids

1/27/2023

It's been hours

1/27/2023

It's late

1/27/2023

I didn't ask any questions

1/27/2023

I don't know where to go

1/27/2023

Our breakfast the next morning

1/27/2023

The van door slides open

1/27/2023

I knew something was different

1/27/2023

I rushed from the lodge

1/27/2023

Back in the van

1/27/2023

Deacon has not called

1/27/2023

I didn't leave

1/27/2023

My view of the stars

1/27/2023

It's time

1/27/2023

I take Elena's hand

1/27/2023

Night had fallen

1/27/2023

The Riverside County Coroner's office

1/27/2023

I twist around

1/27/2023

It's a plain

1/27/2023

Everything is a blur

1/27/2023

My eyes blur with tears

1/27/2023

That's why I wanted this broadcast

1/27/2023

Carlos grabs my arm

1/27/2023

I've been here before
