Walking with my wife
at night
her phone tones
in the dark
The next sound
I hear
is my daughter
from home
crying
after trying
my phone
which was silenced
Her mind triggered
to thinkthe worst
   I was murdered
Hugging me hard
when finally home
she said she
wouldn’t know
what to do
without me
which scares me too
Me at 60
She with no siblings
What will she do
when my phone
is silenced for good
