Good Morning

The room feels so much emptier when you leave
I watch the sky change from pitch to periwinkle as the clock ticks past minute after minute like a warning
Your voice fills my ears and I can feel my mind wander into its own periwinkle shade of "what ifs" and "some days"
I must remind myself that with each passing day I'm closer to feeling your fingertips gracing my own
It's painful
the waiting

I never asked for easy, though.
