Sweet Mercy

The alarm went off.

It ended me laying, here missing her and listening to the sounds of people taking each other for granted.
I never want to be taken for granted again.  I am a prize and should always be a challenge.

I must remember to comment on the little things and strive to fulfill the little things.  To this one who doesn't want birthday or Christmas gifts.  Who thrills me with talk of Gardens and solar water heaters.

Now I am off to work to ease the misery of missing her.  To occupy my mind with the pseudo emergencies that will fill my night.

To be patient with her is her only request.  "As you wish" my reply.  Yeah you just vomited a little in your mouth.
