134 days later

My world suddenly came back into focus. 

From a blur that my new daily dose of zoloft couldn't combat.

From a blur that an extra glass of wine in the evening couldn't push away.

From a blur that my kids sweetness couldnt warm up.

From a blur that time with friends couldn't laugh away.

I needed Nate.

Out of the haze of sadness, walked Nate back into our lives.
