Heartache

I saw you sitting on the couch changing the channels on the television, and taking a sip of your drink. The sound of the ice smashing against the glass and each other rang through the room, and the movement of your jaw shaping to release your laughter made me smile once again.

All I could hear was the sound of the thunderstorm screaming again, pouring down his tears to flow through the streets at night. Then making the road slippery again and blinding the view of the windscreen of the tolling car trying to get to his destination. The sound of the lighting shattering got me jumping into your arms again and the feeling of your hair going through my fingers made me feel safe again.

The laughter faded just like the night storm did. The sound of the loud noise woke the crying baby and the sound climbed down the streets, giving the fight an end. Taking the car keys from the kitchen table, and storming to the front door, you went with the words, "I'll see you later "faded as the door closed, and the cold night separated. as once more. It was the phone call after eleven that got my heart beating out of my chest answering I frozed after answering and started shaking. The feeling of the cold hard floor hitting my knees and the warm liquid flowing over my face got the baby crying once more.

Your body resting on the white clouds now before me, still hearing your laughter streaming through my ears. One last time, I let your hair fall through my fingers, wishing this was a nightmare. "Just open your eyes hunny!" We never got to see each other later like you promised, the storm took the upper hand and left me with the thought of when later would be?
