Last night was a good night

It was cold
But we had a space heater
And pizza
And a board game
Wine and ****

and a house to ourselves for once
I caught you sleeping better than usual

You make me want to do boring things
But I can work without heart swelling distraction
and clean the house
and practice Spanish
and catch up on some reading

Someday I will tear this quiet heart open
but not Today

Today is boring
#love #home #wine #happy

I shed you
                              Tore you off
                                   Against a rock
                            Winding and
                    Slithering
                            ­Until every
                                      Inch
                                Every glistening
                                               Inch
                                  Was free

                              And I ate you
                                    Sorry

                  ­         I couldn't breath

I love you
Is the prayer
That dissolves behind my lips
Every morning

You are not God
And neither am I
Not anymore

Something has
Something has to
give
me
Something
had to give

And you have gone to sleep
And taken it with you
