Screams
Piercing the darkness of night
They wake me from my sleep
Like only the darkest night terrors can
I pinch myself and hide under my bed
Sliding on the wooden boards
I sit in your sunny kitchen and recount the memories
You pat my hand and pass me the sugar
Trying to make my bitter memories go down a little easier
"It never happened"
"You always did suffer from terrible nightmares"
You smile
But your eyes are dead
Shattered windows
On the soul that I hope will burn in hell
They tell the truths of our life together
You with your uncontrollable rage
Me with my uncontrollable anxiety
I wrung my hands
When what I really wanted
Was to your wring the truth from your wretched throat
