It's hot, and I miss you. It's a potent combination that reverts me to a state of adolescence. I'm juvenile. I want to throw the blanket from my bed and pound my fists on the mattress as I call for you. Yell your name, entitled to you.

Agitation, turbulence, unrest as I lay here waiting for sleep to save me.
