I wake...1

sweaty and screaming2

foolish and alone3

And so I continue on...4

Living each day5

feeling his sweat...6

And hearing his breath7

In the back of my mind8

Everytime silence creeps on me. 9

For night falls, 10

I know that when my head hits 11

that pillow...12

the fight begins13

And he always wins...14

In the end.
