Revenge

We fought so often

that not fighting became a high-five.

Insomnia and I were always friends, but our friendship grew

the night your hand met my neck, smashing my head into the headboard of our bed.

I stayed up, night after night

tracing my finger over the dent debating how I should get you back.

– All I have is my words
