Back to Bed

Response to Harper’s response to Tre’s “Nonet the Night” challenge

Now,
Anger
Faded like
Fleeing moonlight,
I return to bed,
Cold from the couch, seeking
Your warmth in bitter darkness;
Wide awake, you pull me in tight,
Whispering, “I missed you! I’m sorry!”

Two Alone Tonight

Writers: A Challenge

Because I couldn’t just let Harper’s characters go through the night mad at each other. But I reversed the nonet form, since I was trying to reverse the feeling, so it doesn't qualify for ACG (oh, and I missed the deadline, so there’s that 🙄).
