Too tired to wonder why laptop icons
are gone, why Tiaan’s charger isn’t
working, why and when he lost his
new grey trousers
I found that warm, safe place in the eye of
the storm today, when the wind stopped
howling and my heart was secure in
your hands; I luxuriated
In soft understanding and compassion,
came home feeling calm; imperceptibly,
stealthily, sweet assurance evaporated
as pressures mounted
I’m tired, I want to feel safe and calm
again, not overpowered by life….
