i cuddled up next to him and told him the
ins and outs of my emotion packed day.
he really is my best friend. it felt so good
to be snuggled in close fillin' him in.
hearin' his comments and grunts and laughs....
he was a lot quieter about his day.
some things are gettin' to him. and he just
didn't want to go there.
i'm learnin'.
we didn't have to.
i knew what was up and just let it be.
man, have we come a long way in learnin' each
other's habits and needs....it took a lotta
bumps to learn them...but we've come far.
we shared closeness, laughter, and even the
practical 'weatherizing your home for winter' tips.
and then he headed back to the rest of his life.
we had talked earlier about our life together that
we hope for in a few years...
and i remembered a really sad memory.
of someone who was finally going to let me back
in his life...but not yet. just wait another month,
and then he would.
he died before that month was up.
i shared the memory.
we talked of the now. and the need to enjoy the now.
as he heads back to where he has to go....
i'm thinking we're doin' it.
the best we can........i think we're doin it.
what a dance it is.
and i wouldn't trade it for anything.
