Story of An Hour DIary Entry: I Dreamt of Killing You

Of course it was a nightmare

A whisper of the devil
I couldn't have done that
For heaven's sake, I love you
“I love you”
Or at least that's what i said on our wedding day
“Till death do us part” right
The fatal knot that binds us forever
Only to be undone
When you took your last breath
The knot undone by me
When I saw the life leave your eyes
All the years of pain, misery and monotonous routines
Day after day
Being at your beck and call
I finally could let out years of resentment on you
It seems only fair
The powerI held
Playing god
Doing exactly what you did to me for years
I now had keys to the shackles that imprisoned me
I have the power
The freedom
The control
Of what is rightfully mine
My life
But I awoke in shock only to turn and see you lying next to me
I can't decide if i am relieved or underwhelmed
I lay my head to drift away
And dream more happy dreams today
