Best Husbandanger Poems
I lay there dreary eyed
And congested
Suffering in pain
Drowning in silence
I sit there distinctively
Wrapped inside my blanket
Watching the heater
Move slowly back and forth
I lay there only to feel,
Feel the increased tension arise
As the hours go by
Gently I move
Toward the end of the bed
As he turned over and said
What time is it?
I replied
And suddenly I could hear all the anger in his voice
As he began to yell at me
My eyes started to water
The sea of tears
Swiftly turned into an ocean
I could see the enormous disappointment and
Increasing anger that approached his face
As if I was a thief
Who had stolen his wallet
I left the room
Escaped to my place of solitude
I took a shower
Only to stand there desiring the pressure of the water
Running down my back
To give me some relief, relief from what I'm feeling
I cried out loud, what did I do?
Time and time again
Only to hear his voice playing like a broken record
Over and over in my head
I stay there for awhile and then retrieve to my secret place
The place I hide inside
And once again, this memory begins and I just pretend
That nothing ever happened.
I lay down to sleep, close my eyes and Delete
If only I knew. What did I do?...
