Silence

Originally posted in June on another site that doesn’t keep dates of when things were posted. Playing catch up

“Don’t give up on me.”

Those were the last words on a text from him almost a week ago. He said he would explain what was going on. He said he would be home shortly.

His skype doesn’t pick up.

There’s no subtle messages from him anywhere I know he posts on the net. Nothing on twitter, instagram, facebook, and other places.

There’s nothing.

Then he comes in. “You’re to stop this with him. I’ve had enough. If I have to, I’ll be the heavy.”

My husband. My protector.

“I’ve been told to walk away from you,” I texted yesterday.

Nothing but silence.

Time for me to put my broken heart back together.
