In the still of the unusually humid night air, I take refuge
in the calm of my breath
the solitude of my thoughts
the solace of the familiar
Plagued by weariness, in the midst of sole-parenting while my love is away, the silence and serenity upon the fall of darkness is a welcome friend. The endless days, the palpable desire for a moment to just be, have this week infested lingering disillusionment... an insipid mind.
And so tonight, in the still of the unusually humid night air, I take refuge
in the calm, the solitude and the solace of knowing
that tomorrow is a new day
Those days can be so long when there is just you to care for a little one. I'm glad you had a moment to yourself and take in the peace and calm of the night. I hope that tomorrow is a good day. Take care. xx
