I feel my heart pounding in my throat

A message appears saying she's almost here

My heart misses a beat like a stone skipping on the water

The door opens and closes with a resounding clatter

I run down the stairs,

Quicker than light

She smiles and her eyes glimmer like stars

She lights up the whole room

What a beautiful distraction

The cold air from outside acts as cool water on my face

It's brings me back to earth

She steps toward me

Her arms around me

A better antidepressant than any doctor could prescribe

I swear

There is nothing better than this

I didn't know how lonely I was without her

Nor understand how sad I could be

But now here she is,

With me again

And all is okay.
