Here it is. The time of day I hate. It's that time when I have to go to sleep before you do. I like it better when you go to sleep first because I don't have to make the choice to say goodbye. I don't have to choose to stop talking to you in favour of sleep.
If I had my way, I wouldn't ever need sleep. I could stay awake until you drifted off into slumber. Then I would fill my hours, anxiously awaiting the moment you wake. I would greet you with a ":)" or "Good morning, Sunshine" to help you stay your day off with a smile.
But for now, I must choose to say goodnight. But I take solace in knowing that saying goodbye now means saying hello again tomorrow.
Goodnight, my Butterfly.
