I Love You.

Hey babe, just got home (again) — another caffeine-fueled late night drive after one long-ass day, this time just me and one of the kids, but anyways…

I just really wanted to say that I love you. I know this whole you're gone then I'm gone then you're gone then I'm gone thing is temporary and probably even done for now with the kids going to school tomorrow, but… I dunno, man, I just miss you to pieces. Hah! Not even two weeks and I'm going frickin' nuts wondering how you're doing…

I love how we've been getting closer and all that but I don't know how sustainable this really is… my need for you is absurd. Just this overwhelming need to know your state… are you happy? Did you have a good weekend? How're things going with work? How're the kids? Are the various stressors in your life easing up any? Feeling appreciated enough? Can I help with that if not? Can I help with anything? I know we've got this FB messenger thing going on, but could I, like… call you? Just to hear your voice? Would I know what to say? Would it be too weird? When can I see you? Wanna get a beer? Think we could sneak in one last camping trip for the season? Just… how are you? Are you good? Any unfulfilled needs? How can I best show you my love for you today? What are you wearing? I mean, the only thing you need to drive me crazy is your eyes, but any chance at all for one more leggings & crop top combo before it gets cold? Figure out what you're going to be for Halloween yet? Just… god, I need to talk to you, like, so bad, like… all the time. I envy those lucky souls who get to talk to you every single day… I hope they all fully appreciate what they have…

but here, I've probably gone on too long and anyways pretty sure the caffeine is losing to the fatigue so…

I love you, babe. I love you. You are the most beautiful being this universe has ever created, and I long to see you so badly…

sigh

Goodnight, babe. Love you.

Yours.
