Empty

Wet sloppy toddler kisses
caught between loads of laundry
that squealed laughter
overheard as I make dinner
playdates and parkdays
homework help
driving
Always driving kids
somewhere
pre-nap snuggles
storytimes snuck in too rarely
datenight
diapers
hugs from a son taller than his mom
days so full so
full
I've weaned the baby
But still I feel
sucked
so
dry.
