Darling, won’t you sleep. It’s what you need.

We can put this off ‘till the morning.

I know you’re scared I am going to leave.

But I don’t know

if I’m ever coming home.

I just need to think 

about the reasons I have to leave.

I’ve been waiting patiently to speak.

And I’m spent. and I’m lonely.

But I don’t know

if I’m ever coming home.

I said I’d try.

I said goodbye.
