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.

Lost tales of longing

Fingers curled. Eyes blurred.

Teardrops splash the photo in hand.

A beautiful photo. Our photo.

Each tear holding a story of its own.

Stories of joy, of sorrow, of longing.

The longing to see you. To smell you. To touch you.

My soul dives into a state of melancholy.

And in the joyful bitterness, I find myself with you once again.
