Here We Go Again


He’s packing his bags today.  His flight back to the states leaves bright and early tomorrow morning.  I knew this time would come.  I knew he’d eventually have to go back.  Knowing doesn’t make it any easier, though.  My heart is already sinking.  The loneliness is waiting behind the scenes, just waiting to creep in.  This shouldn't be so hard.  I should be used to it by now.  We’ve done it all before.  He was just gone for an extended stint.  But I’ve become accustomed to his presence.  We quickly fell back into a comfortable routine.  Life was more fun with him around.  He gave me something to look forward to on a daily basis.  My Australia will not be the same without him.  I’m going to miss him.
