Long Day
With teeth gritted
head still pounding
weight of the world
pressed heavier today
I know that no matter
what happened today
how rough our jobs
come nightfall’s end
your legs will meet mine
beneath our favorite linens
the world will fall away
peace will come
my glimmer in the darkness

Human beings have certainly endured much for the promise of coming together “in the darkness”. Nice writing, Courtney.
Thank you 😊
