In Solitary

I don’t do much with my days anymore. On the days I go downstairs I spend my time sitting in the kitchen. She’s in every inch of this house; from the wallpaper to the floor rugs, but I feel her presence the strongest in here, right at this table.

I leave the lights off because sometimes, it sounds crazy, but sometimes I hear her moving through the kitchen. I live for those days now. I sit and drink coffee and listen. And while I listen I cry for myself and the years and pray I’ll be with her again soon.
