The Long Wait
It's early. Friday. I'm in bed wrapped in clothes that smell like the black hair on his chest. Listening to Okkervil River for the 100th time today, and writing about how I feel - Truthfully, I'm in bed because I don't know what to do with myself. Tomorrow I'll be in a hospital bed somewhere in London - cut open and stitched back up. I'll write letters in my journal, while the morphine takes hold. Goodnight.
