you really never know who you have in front of you, until they leave. i pray that you have a safe journey to wherever your heart desires. 

you have many dreams that you want to accomplish, you have a great strive in what you want to do. you have a great heart and i want to get to know that heart. 

let me read your poetry, let me recite an ballet for you. let me see your heart, for what you truly are. let me see through your eyes how you view the world. let me understand why you want to fight for a nation that does not allow your mother from Puebla to stay here. 

allow me to guide your hand into my family, show you the different ways we accept you. 

"Soplale, esta caliente."

"Memo! vamos a ver el partido!"

"Maneja con cuidado, por favor cuidate mucho."

"me llamas cuando llegaste."

William Montgomery Lopez, can i spend a day with you, i want to know you.

 i want to see your baby photos when you were three,

 i want to hear your favorite song, you know the one you danced to when mama or papa played it for hours. 

i want to taste your favorite food, the one that makes your taste-buds dance with joy even after years. 

i want to feel your heart beat and jump at your favorite things. 

i want to step into your home and smell the odors that you grew up on.

this may be crossing the line, this may be something you are not looking for at the moment.  

i cannot say that i want to be a chapter in your book, i cannot say that i want to be your entire book.   

Guillermo, i just want to say that wherever life may lead us, i hope you have a great life. i will pray for you. 

take care my dear friend.
