Today…

Today was one of the types of days I hope to relive again and again someday.

Today was the kind of day that take an empty tank and tops it off.

Today seemed to shout at me all day long: you are living the best days of your life! SOAK IT IN!

Tonight I go to bed knowing it’s likely I’ll dream of something horrific, as always.

Tonight I may wake sweating, sobbing, screaming, and sick.

Tonight I’ll fall asleep smiling on my pillow.

Tonight as I lay, I’ll be thinking of today.

---

Another night, another nightmare.

But today—

I spent all day laughing and playing with my girls.

Nothing that comes tonight can overwrite—

Nothing can steal away—

today.

Nothing.
