Literature Text

I dream that you cheat
Sometimes,
Though mostly we’re in black-and-white
And Sunday-bests,

Framed as the childhood sweethearts
Who hang above the mantelpiece
In the Vaseline-scented peach front room
I know like the lines of your face
So it doesn’t make sense-

God knows I’ve tried
To trust you.
My grandparents were 14 when they met. In their wedding photo, their faces are young and unafraid.

I probably won't do all 100 and as you can see I'm not doing them in order. ;) (Wink)
