Thinks & Inks

2•0•1•7

She called,

It was almost midnight

This is not how I expected 2017 to begin

With everyone else asleep,

I walked into the kitchen and 

I answered…

I answered because she needed me,

Even though she was hundreds of miles away 

Through the phone lines, 

I was able to help untangle her thoughts

And try 

To make sense of the situation

I reached out,

Hugging her with my words
