A Week

Sunday
I woke up on the bed and watched you sleep on the couch. Why do we have to fight?
Breakfast was a quite affair and so was the whole day. I went to do my work and you stayed. You watched sports as dinner was made. I went to sleep on the bed and watched you sleep on the couch.


Monday
We were late because we didn't wake each other up. Are we still fighting?
Breakfast was a rush. You wanted to say something but I ran out the door. Your came back to an empty home. I don't remember what happened because you were already asleep when I came back.


Tuesday
We woke up side by side but no words were spoken. We didn't get late today. I don't remember what the fight was about. I came back early, made dinner but we didn't eat together because I had work to finish. I remember you were smiling as you slept, was your day good?


Wednesday
I woke up with a smile, our hands were entwined. Did we make up last night? You didn't say anything. I gave you a smile but I think yours was forced. Today was event-less. I wanted to end this silence but could I? We went to bed together, we held each other, but still no words.


Thursday
I woke up to an empty house. You didn't leave a note. I was worried all day. The home was empty when I returned. Where were you? I was about sleep when the doorbell rang. You came in and went to bed. You didn't give me a chance to say anything. That night I didn't sleep.


Friday
You seemed altered today. You were smiling and you said good morning too. If it wasn't workday I would have never left you. I came back home and there you were. You had made dinner and we chatted all night long. But we never spoke of our fight. Why was that?


Saturday
I woke up alone in our bed. Last night seemed a dream after the week of silence. You came out the other room and gave me the smile I was looking for. You led me to the room and I saw what you were doing all week. I could see all our time together in front of me. You whispered the magic words in my ear, it had been so long since I heard them. Then you added the question I never thought you were gonna ask. I was overwhelmed and unable to answer. You didn't wait for me to speak and swept me off my feet. I wan't aware there was more to know of you but I was surprised that day. That day we promised each other a life together.
