i had a great idea
early this morning
you were still asleep
i thought about waking you up
to tell you
this great idea
yesterday
i’d been working from home all day
you were tired
having driven our child to all their appointments
they’re not the we’ll see you in a year type of appointments
they’re where the therapist comes out
they’re the your child is worried
have they ever mentioned this?
your child is anxious
is everything ok at home?
your child thinks they’re in the wrong place
that you may not be their real parents
do they have any friends?
they’re hearing voices
are there any firearms in the house?
let’s up their medications
things will get harder before they get easier
type of appointments
which you come home from
and we
sit
talk
cry
i make more coffee
cry
oh look at the time
cry
cry
cry
which is why i didn’t wake you
about this idea
which i think is great
though i’m not sure
about everything else.
