Missing
Written by The Lassie
I wish I had someone to take care of me right now. Just for a little while. I’d like a hug and a good conversation. Someone who shows sympathy for all the crap that’s been coming our way recently. Someone to tell me that I will indeed manage to do everything I need to take care of. That things will work out, one way or another. Someone who, when my migraine acts up again – as it has done a lot recently – will be there, pottering around the house a little, stroking my head on occasion. I really just need someone today. Of course, the Lad is always there, he always listens. But I am missing someone more…maternal, I suppose. I miss my mother. Very much. I miss my grandmother, for that matter. I can’t believe I am 30 years old and STILL find that I long for the kind of attention and care only a mother can truly give.
