In the hustle and bustle of the airport, noise all around me, with voices talking all together in excitement or just business, I sat there in silence thinking about my love, my Tom. I remember when I would get a call as I was waiting for my plane to talk about random things and just be excited to be with each other again soon. I usually found something funny as I sat there and would share my thoughts. This time, I kept my thoughts to myself as I sat alone. Sigh … tears started welling up as I struggled not to cry while waiting on the plane, and hearing the song “The Sound of Silence.”
