I am not a man who likes routine, yet I keep the routine, every morning.
I wake, take care of your needs, your food, your freedoms.
I then try to take care of the simple things for me, all the while, giving you all the attention you crave/
I apologize when my schedule changes and our time is cut short.
I say goodbye every day, whether you're listening or not.
I think of you when I'm gone. I worry when you are.
I fear when I have to stay late and wonder if you're worried, upset, or OK.
I realize you're home and wish to be out.
I open the door and you're there, usually waiting with your own form of embrace.
I take care of your needs. Always before mine.
I make sure you're comfortable as possible.
I brush your hair and massage your neck until you drift off into a slumber.
I take care not to wake you, should I have to get up.
I keep the noise to a minimum,
I give you most of the bed, careful not to startle you with my tossing and turning.
I sleep light, just in case you need me.
I am not a man who likes routine, but I'll do it all over again tomorrow.
It's not easy being a crazy cat guy.
