Tonight...

Utter laziness. Me, lying here in front of the monitor, chin propped on one hand while I pick out words with the other. There's a cold beer... my fourth this year.. to my right. And the other apartments have, as this one, fallen quiet. I can hear myself breathing.

There's music singing inside me right now. Calm is deceptive. Today... today I learned. Today I loved. Today I breathed and felt and sang. And tonight? The quiet descended. Lovely, lovely feeling. Cold bottle against my skin, leaving faint, unmistakable dampness behind. The weather is definitely growing cooler. Last night, I needed a blanket. Today, around 4 PM, I did again... it had rained, and the moisture-laden breezes entering through the window left me smiling as I drifted off to sleep, blanket pulled up to my chin. Tonight, I am wondering what tomorrow will bring.

Utter contentment. Just this once, no second-guessing. Sufficient unto the day... today, I almost feel I was. I caused no pain, today. No tears fell because of me, I said no words that need to be recalled. For tonight? That's more than enough. Sufficient unto the day are the evils thereof... and tonight, tomorrow's evils seem very far away.
