After the Fight
She lays awake on tear stained pillows.
He says you know I love you right?
His words don’t sound the same,
His apology insincere tonight.
Lost in her thoughts again,
It’s back to fight or flight.
The laughs have expired,
With only pain in sight.
Was it his words or his hands,
That made it all go bad?
What has changed here,
That makes her so sad?
He asks if she’s hurt,
Or are you just mad?
It’s all gone to Hell,
The love they had.
