Simply infuriating that I don't know
I'm fairly certain of this emotion
That I could ring around the nosey
And discard everything else
I couldn't tell you the time
I only know the tasteÂ
I couldn't imagine the place
But I know the feeling and I'm cold
Shaking like it's never happened before
I'm alone with someone next to me
I can feel him but my skin is crawling
Like I can't
With what do I detest
With whim do I instigate
I can't remember the foulÂ
But I always sink in this position
Nothing takes more time than
This
Tell me no and I'll retractÂ
It's gone now so I'll refrain.Â

Buyers remorse? At least you recognized he/she was wrong before you got married.
Live and learn and move on with no regrets.
It's good to see you writing again. I hope we see more.

If you are describing some altered state, then you might like to read my "First Fruit Falling From the Tree" that I re-posted the other day. THis was quite the thoughtful piece and thanks.
