A Moment of Weakness

You know me. I am strong. I don't cry in front of anyone. I don't express my sufferings. I hold fast and rarely ever ask for help. This is how you see me, yet you know otherwise. I am soft, loving, and even I cry when no one is around. I'm an M&M... hard shell on the outside, soft and sweet inside (sometimes with a nut!) LOL.

I bring this all up because I am having a moment of loneliness. It doesn't come along very often. Tonight, I am lonely. I miss the feeling of lying next to someone just to be held. I miss the feeling of a kiss. I miss having a conversation that uses no words.

Tomorrow, I know, the feeling will probably pass. But tonight, it's here and it's strong.
