Walls

Memories consume me, repeatedly in my head. Every step we took together rewinds. How he was so cautious with everything he said. How reserved he was in life, and when the talk of marriage came I could see him lose his mind. The more we spoke about it the more he gave in Until I saw a victory soon closing in. now he barely looks at me if he awakes at all we are two strangers to share the same bed and trapped by the same walls.
