Why so quiet?


This is a first. I am bothered by your absence. By the lack of news. By the worry it has resulted me in.

This is new for me. I don't normally mind. I have faith and I know. But I stretch my bedtime in case you would buzz.

I usually go for weeks, and I know.

My body is tired every day, from lack of sleep, from anxiety of wondering when you will call. My mind is exhausted, from thinking of clever ways to manipulate my own flesh and blood into giving me trouble-free mornings.

20th, you said. That's just 2 more days.

I have never felt this worried, and uncertain.
