Gone

I don't want to be gone. I don't want quality time, or on the weekends when I am not working. I want to be a fixture, a part of the background, an equal team member. I don't want to never be home enough that you notice when I am.

I want to be there so often that you don't even think, that they are bored with me being around, that they are so used to my presence that they want to grow out of it later. Because me sacrificing, me working, is not worth the cost.
