It has been over 48hrs of in/ex-communicado.
I have not been in touch with family or friends for about 96hrs.
Spent the night at the office,
Imposed Curfew,
caged movement.
And in these moments of palpable silence,
I realize how blessed I truly am/was to have them buzzing my phone lines.
"Ï just called to hear your voice"... These are often the words of Mom and Dad when they peacefully disturb.
I miss Home.
Home is People.
Home is Family.
Home is Mom's open and warm embrace.
Home is Dad's smile.
Home is Daniel's noiseless excitement to see me.
Home is Maris' adorable mute.
Home is Jane's loudness.
Home is Funmi's quiet.
Oh God ! I miss Home
