I miss you today Tommy!

The light was filtering through the cobwebs of sleep and my mind was slowly wakening.
I did not miss you then.
You were there.
Your arms wrapped securely around me
your warmth bringing comfort and peace.
You were there.
My heart danced to music only we could hear
Your touch -
You were there.

The alarm intruded like a thief -
Breaking the windows of my dreams
stealing my peaceful sleep.
My mind jumped and started.
There were no arms around me.
No warm comfort or peace.
No music drifted through my heart
You were not there.
I missed you then.

I miss you today Tommy.
