He sleeps restlessly while I sit crying; a ring on my finger, he doesn't know I'm lying... and when I gaze at pictures he doesn't see me dying. I try with all my might to remember the accident, drunk or sober does no good, can't recall the way it went, can't see the visions in my head or hear the cries I meant. He sleeps restlessly and I tire of tossing and turning, a lesson lost years back when I forgot about re-learning things I long forgot about left on that bridge a'burning. Forgive the nonsense of me now. But at 330 in the morning when he is snoring and I'm awake and the world is kinda boring... I try to remember the accident but I guess it's worth ignoring. |

You've captured the reasons for such terrible unrest. I was held right to the page. The past can be a killer sometimes. Very creative! Eric |
