Tears well up in my throat
(acid worn)
I don’t want to move so I
Pretend
To stay asleep
The best I’ve ever had
Lies only inches from my heart
(irregularly beating)
His voice had a different tone
To it, this time
I swear it was a different frequency
This time it was sincere.
Defeated.
He kept laughing
Nervously
Almost apologetically
And I don’t remember ever
Seeing him so destroyed.
This time
There was no snow on the road
But I awoke to find my body
Frozen solid.
