You and I

We met in a chat room not knowing who the other truly was

Developed a trust and swapped cell phone numbers

Through text and snail mail, we slowly learned about the other

And then silence took over.

Five years of not thinking of you, my life went on

No one knew about the mystery man who came and gone

And I didn’t think they ever would

I checked my inbox and you reappeared like a magician.

What made you think of me?

How long did you wait before reaching out?

Were you expecting a response or were you holding on to hope?

Was I going to respond and release my breath I sucked in haste,

Or leave you in the dark like unneeded waste?

I replied to your “hey” with a “hello”

And from there watched the words as they flowed

My heart pounded in my head

Unlike Houdini, our conversations came back from the dead.

For two whole years there is no silence in sight

And our talks have developed into new heights

We FaceTime nearly every chance we get

I often think of how odd it was the way we met.

You’re sturdy and secure in who you are

Seldom show your fears or scars

With piercing eyes you read my mind

And continue to want me with every flaw there is yet to find.

Am I alone when I say, “I am not creative enough for this site,”?

Nannyhood

I didn't think I was an alcoholic, until I started counting how many times I have muttered to myself, "I need a drink." Getting children ready for school has definitely increased those utterances. Ehhh.
