Somewhere
Somewhere there's a little sister who does not torment her older brother.
Somewhere there's an older brother who does not shower verbal nastiness down upon his little sister.
Somewhere there's an older brother who does not worry that a mother's love for little sister does not mean that she has less love for him.
Somewhere there is a house with an hour in which no fights occur between big brother and little sister.
Somewhere there is a calm evening when peace reigns unruffled by the slightest cutting remark or snarky retort.
Somewhere children play happily together, even older brothers and little sisters.
Somewhere kids go to bed on school nights before 10:30.
Somewhere there's a place where nerves and muscles go slack.
Somewhere there's an hour on a sofa with a book that belongs only to me.
Somewhere there is good sleep with no CPAP.
Somewhere there's a day without exhaustion.
Somewhere there is love without fear.

Oh man, in between each of those sentences there is heaven on Earth.
But...it comes and goes.
