I am in pain tonight.

Not just my body.

But my mind too.

I am afraid.

Afraid to fall asleep.

Because I know what it is like.

To wake up and not have you there.

I need you with me.

To hold me and love me.

To stroke my head.

So I forget the throbbing leg.

To touch my skin.

So I know you are ok.

I hate being so far from you.

Not knowing if you are resting.

Or stirring about in pain.

Looking for me.

I am with you baby.

I am always with you.
