Dear Avie,

You’re going to be the one that saves me.

My pain is the reminder that you are real.

Taking these words to help me build my bed of you.

I can’t help but pull these words out of my head.

Dreading the sharks that are in my bed.

Thrashing the covers off of me, I think I’m between its teeth.

Pulling the covers back over my head.

Hiding myself from the truth that is you’re gone.

Don’t mess with the sleeping pills, they will mess with your head.

Medication could do me some good, but self-medication is even better.

Hello from this side, won’t you say hello from yours?

Xoxo- Mommy
