Of all the things you did
your angst was never at rest
not even in sleep
I could hear the angered words under your breathe
mumbling in argument
teeth grinding, chattering at times
you'd flinch, you'd flail
I opened my eyes
when I looked over at your twisted face
you shouted with eyes closed
your words became clear and you belted out curses
I just lie there watching
you jumped up and raised a fist above my face
I gasp and flinch in shock and fear
your eyes slowly opened
confusion
"Sorry"
Kissed me on the forehead and closed your eyes again
