A Nice Change

watching you sleep in my kingsized bed

I realise with growing satisfaction

that with a single shotgun blast to your head

I could alter my life and bedroom

which is fine I love the colour red

and I would soon forget the skull fragments

imbedded into the wallpaper

a bit disturbing but not completely unreasonable:P

In L1 - I don't like the word "Whilst", I think you could sharpen the image just by saying "Watching you sleep in my king sized bed" would suffice.  Or even a bit more "Show" "Watching you sleep in my king sized bed, your chest moves gently up and down"

 

In L5 - I"d remove the word "As"

 

The more I read it, the more I like it.  I've felt like this a time or two. (and red is my favourite colour, in fact my bed room walls are painted blood red)

I like this... edgy and a bit disturbing but I think you did well with it.. my favorite lines are... 

"I could alter my life and bedroom
which is fine as I love the colour red"
