Restless Poem by Shane Clawson

I lay my head on the floral pillow case

And pretend I'm asleep

So the boyfriend won't bother me




We fought before work and we quarreled before I said my prayers

I don't think we're a team anymore




He controls the tele

He says all I do is complain

If you had no choices on the TV box,

Wouldn't you do the same?




Miss him being on my side

when did we start hating each other

I manage to swallow my pride

Why do I even bother




A picture frame of us

Stands on the dresser of beautiful time

Who are those people

I don't think we're a team anymore.
