Sometimes we expect someone to be
available at all times. Then we forget we're lucky to have it.
How is feel right now is lonely.
Where I am right now is far away from
where I really want to be.
Usually, between the hours of ten and
two, my inexpensive flip top phone is in the palm of my hand and my
hand is up next to my ear.
Usually, between the hours of ten and
two, the voice on the other end of the phone is Miss River. In
between laughing and talking about books or making sexual innuendos,
I'm telling her I love her. Usually.
Tonight I look at the digital clock and
it tells me it's 12:21
It doesn't move. It sits there on the
bottom right hand corner of my screen and has two sets of 1's and two
sets of 2's and doesn't move.
What I am doing right now is missing
Miss River and our conversations.
It's funny, sometimes we take for
granted the voice on the other end of the phone.
Where I am right now, is standing over
a small pond of full of memories, flipping borrowed time into crystal
clear water, wishing I could go back and change things.
