why do i feel ok?

you and i spoke, and the next day i felt better. i shouldn't have, because our conversation was nothing but sad... but you are soothing to me. you are the arms of my mother when i need to be rocked to sleep. you are the coffee that wakes me up when i can't keep my eyes open. you are the freshness in the air that clears my head when i go hiking in the old growth. if i go without contact with you, i slowly waste away.
