Ignition

Ignition

I would listen through sheetrock 
Clenching my fists, in a staring contest  with the clock. 
Even long sleeves and dopamine 
Couldn't numb the pain each time she'd leave 

The ignition starts the fight again after he begs her to stay 
Life never  stops 
Not even on your worst day
