A soft, gray light crept into the living room, just enough to see the clock's hands pointing to six. I shuffled in, still wrapped in the haze of sleep, and noticed you sitting there, perfectly still, your eyes fixed on nothing. With a tired sigh, I sank onto the cushion beside you. Before I could speak, you turned and collapsed against me, your arms locking around my waist, your face pressed into my side. I felt the damp heat of your tears through my sweater. My own heart clenched. Slowly, I folded my arms around you, leaning my cheek against the crown of your head, holding you as your quiet sobs shook through the morning stillness.
