How slowly can I make the door close
To catch one last glimpse of your face in the dark?
Softly saying “Goodnight daddy, have a safe flight”
Your “I love you” echoes in my ears as my legs, like lead
Walk slowly down the hall
In this moment
Every ambition, every purpose, every goal
Pales in comparison to the anticipation
Of hugging my little (and not so little) champions again
And then how quickly will I make the door open
To clear the path for your sprinting embrace
Acting Doctor 
I ♡ this. Hope you got back soon to gather them to you.
