Jul 2016
Sweat drips onto the plate
Tears roll down my cheek
Hands fidget almost dramatically
No inner peace can I seek
Feet tap on the floor
Arms twitch in pulsating tandem
My mouth is as dry as the Sahara
And thoughts attack me at random
Fun times we used to share
Have gone and moved away
And now she's gone to
Why couldn't I make her stay
The petals are on the carpet
As the stems poke out of the bin
How can I live with an ice cube
She said before drowning in her gin    
The house is cold and empty
My heart has now shrunk in size
All I had to be was honest and open
But its only now that I realise
To late to find solutions
Our marriage now lies in a heap
We pulled it apart piece by piece
Till we both just fell asleep
