Phone call

Written on Jun 27, 2021

I did my phone call
Nothing new about you
I wanted to ask if your plus one was ok too son
But daddy isn't allowed 
I asked the nurse if she could touch your foot for me. I said you don't like that 
I explained I just wanted to tease 
The nurse didn't sound too pleased
I don't think they like daddy its ok
Nothing stops me from calling ok?
I hope you are doing ok today
I haven't held you in 25 days
The way I'm handling this im amazed
