the small

we lay in bed,
silence as our blanket,
hiding daggers of thought
cloaked beneath pillowcases.

my insides hurt,
everything hurt,
and i wanted him
to be a little closer.

with my lips near his ear,
i whispered to him,
begged him to take tomorrow off
so we could talk it all over.

he grumbled, and said 'fine,
but my boss will be pissed.'
i kissed him and fell asleep,
as my alarm clock read 9:11.
