Huddled in a corner - like the walls have her mother’s arms- until sunrise.
“2 hours then the lamp goes off. Sleep can settle on fraught nerves.”
The comfort of daylight.
Lawns mowed, children running through water sprinklers, cars honking , joggers gulping water with loud gasps.
When their bustling ways can drown out other voices.
