Nights spent standing over you.
I caressed your cheek after every tremble.
Though your eyes were closed,
I can tell you were frightened.
You stare your restless eyes upon me when I'm here.
When I am away, you sleep like a baby.
I come home in the midst of the night,
To find you clutching the sheets
And squinting your eyes.
Wrestling the adversity in your sleep.
You suffer, my love.
I pressed the knife into your heart.
Your suffers shall subside.
