Our Brains

by ChronicMercy

I love him. Yeah, he's loud but its just who he is. He's a Yankee, and I'm a Belle. I've learned to live with it. I love him. We set each other aflame Sometimes with desire sometimes with raging fire. But its okay. The heat is fine. I love him. My breath is heavy and my inhale quick Maybe a panic attack? Maybe from dick. We're back to yelling the neighbors hear. We're just passionate. Its our dynamic? Oh God, its our dynamic. I love him. He loves me. Its why I'm shaking and he's shaking and we can't comfort the other because the world would shatter from the quaking. I love him. From over there though. And I'm tired. I'll take my pills and beg him to take his. And will be better in the morning. I wake at 8. He wakes at 10. It'll be better in the morning.

Notes

Mental illness, especially when both people have it, in marriage is hard. Some days are harder than others.
