" Can you just hold me?"
The words did not register at first, caught as I was in the throes of anger.
The fight started over something small and insignificant.
I don't even recall what it was.
It snowballed into both of us out-shouting each other in the middle of the night...
Hurling accusations which seem silly now...
Venting frustrations at each other, and at life!
The world suddenly seemed a lonely place and the emotions welled up.
" I have invested twenty five years in this relationship.
I certainly deserve better."
I heard myself sobbing out the words, whilst trying to wipe my runny nose.
" Can you just hold me?"
His voice penetrated through the haze.
I found my connection...and my ground.
