…the mesmerising sight of him sitting in my car, denying that he was still in contact with her, sweating. Hard, like an actor under the lights.
I watched as first, beads peppered his brow and his top lip. His hair dampened along his forehead as the sweat made salty tracks down his face, into his beautiful green eyes, joining the pool collecting at his chin before falling off.
I stiffled a...

the bed seemed too foreign without him next to me, I let the darkness take my hurt and hide it outside the door. Lost and grieving, his arms a familiar space where I could chase sleep and pretend that I didn’t know those same arms belonged to a man skilled in fuckwittery.
He wanted reassurance through tenderness, his lips touched my neck,and I moved away, but the feel of his tears on my...

Days like these?

I say goodbye to my early start, and watch him sleeping, my anger seeping out with every breath. He does this a lot. He does this everytime. He does this to us.
Days like these I want...
