Lying down. Side by side.
Seemingly worlds apart.
While screens blare loudly, words seem to escape us.
Brewing anger slowly fades to a painful awkwardness.
“I’m sorry”, my mind whispers.
But my back, squared firmly against his, betray my reconciliation.
I let Pride lull me to sleep.
Misery cover me.
Tears take the light out.
Tomorrow.
Let it be done then.
Let it be done then. Tomorrow
Tomorrow; a gamble
Like a toss of a coin
Head or tail? We do not know
Yet, we risk it all
Cuddle our ego
And lie in wait
For tomorrow
That may never come

Eyes wide. Retort ready. War simmers out of me.
Sunlight floods. Warms the room.
My enemy revealed.
Unarmed. Undefended.
Asleep. In peace.
I calm it. The monster in me.
The worse has already passed.
