Post fight

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.
