I sit on the edge of our bed and watch you sleeping, your rose lips curled into a faint dream filled smile. I remember all the times we spent together beneath these sheets, the moans, the laughter, the pillow fights. I remember holding your hand while you slept, stroking your hair and singing you silly songs to help you relax after a hard night's shift. The way you slept curled against my body, we fit so perfectly, my arms embracing you tightly. I remember the secrets we purged, wiping each other's tears and delicate kisses to erase the pain.

All the dreams we shared, our hopes for the future. We'll always be together we promised each other. The way you lay across my lap, playing with my hair and that smile, Catherine I loved your smile so much.

Sitting here watching you sleep, I try to find the same feelings deep inside me. I sigh, rubbing my tired eyes and wondering what the hell happened to leave us where we are now.

You don't smile for me any more; we don't laugh or share secrets. We sit in silence when we're not screaming at each other and I can't remember the last time you let me touch you.

Looking back at you one last time, I pick up my bags and leave my key on the bedside table.

I leave one last part of me before I go, these tears that soak deep into your pillow.
