expected
You know how we sit in the two
front seats of my car
and how the windows are fogged by the water vapor of your mouth.
When a smile drags a lovely crevace
across my face
and when i lightly press my head against your chest to hear your
relaxed heart beat.
It's a cheer fest, spread the love like
it's a contagious virus! There is
enough for each individual!
But
The certainty of happiness
dissinegrates.
I look into your eyes and their
vibrance is gone.
You spit your sorrowful lies and deny
your existance,
like a child who dissagrees with the decisions of his parents.
Apologies pour out of your mouth like
wine,
rich and bitter, entoxicating with its
stale monotonous weep.
My fear overwhelms my ability to
speak as you punch and destroy
every little innocent thing,
like a demon, searching for its victim.
Your tears sit plump on your flaming
red cheeks
as you recap your mistakes and hold
the sign of regret.
Your heart returns it its natural state
and the chemicals in your brain stop
pulsing to your skull.
I finally manage to glance at your face
after staring doen at the laces of my
ragged shoes.
"I'm sorry", you say
"I'll never do that again, I promise".
