the honeymoon is over

she rolls
over,  my wife of two weeks
and says,
i can't do this anymore.
i raise my head
to look at her,
and say, what?
you can't do what?
this, she this, spreading
her arms
out, this.
i can't do this anymore.
two weeks and you're
done?
we still have wedding
cake in the fridge.
you still have rice in your hair.
yup, i think so.
i'm just not feeling it anymore.
what about the wedding
gifts.
we can split them, she says.
what about the dog.
you can have him.
is there someone else?
no she says, not yet at least.
can we still be friends?
no, i don't think that would
work either.
alright, i guess.
do you want the air fryer?
