requiem for a dream

"You are
A very unhappy soul. 
You are
A frustrated 
And a sick 
Asshole -

Do
something
about it"
She screams -

I get up
Switch off the lights and
Walk into the
other room

Open the windows
let the cold winter slip in and
fill in that space
that she
left
wide
open -

I settle in my bed, cuddle
Under a blanket
And with a smile
go to sleep
As if
there is
no tomorrow -

You know
sometimes life is better 
this way.
