A Week Away From Home


You left messages on my laptop of all my favorite bedtime stories for times like this. You promised to keep your phone on and under your pillow for me, in case of nightmares or discomfort in the dark while you're away. You gave me teddy bears that "look" and smell  like you because we both know I'm afraid to sleep alone. It's been so long since this worry started, but I think it's time to stop. You'll be home soon, I'm strong on my own, and that's enough for me.
