Melancholy

I just kissed your sleeping forehead, walked out of the room and was in tears before I could even close the door. You’re fast asleep in Nancy’s lap, and you are adorable. And I have to head to the airport for a business trip. As with other trips, my impending departure has been weighing heavily on me in the days leading up to my trip. But unlike other trips, I completely lost it today. I’m not sure why this time was so hard, but I just feel awful and sad and conflicted and lonely. And I’m not even out of town yet.
