Delu-icide
She sobs. A deep guttural gasp comes from the shaking outline of her body bundled up, bruised & blessed, beneath the blankets.
He lights another cigarette, before asking another question she’d already answered moments before. Weeks before, months before that & the year that had passed.
His anger only makes her anxious. And they both know she has not taken a proper breathe since…
She whispers, vocal chords croaking under the weight of her sadness, ‘Lately, I’ve recalled a fond adoration for this ending, the one labelled SUICIDE’
He scoffs, “You’re delusional.”
She exhales, her heart has taken enough beatings for one evening

Vivid picture painted here. I like how you combined delusional and suicide to form the title word; creative. It's nice to see some fresh, new work from you!
