I lay alone.

Staring into the darkness.

My mind is racing;

No sleep will come this night.

Thoughts of you plague my mind.

I wish I could see you.

My heart pounds as I imagine you

Whispering to me

Your lips brushing my ear

Murmuring to make me laugh.

I need to hear your voice.

My cheeks emanate heat,

Remembering those sweet things,

Though few and far between,

You have spoken to me.

I slowly close my eyes,

Turn on my side,

And snuggle into my bed.

Though I thought it impossible,

My dreams take hold

And whisk me away

Into your embrace:

One of the few places

I cannot be when I wake.

When I open my eyes once more,

I am still trapped in the world of my sleep

Where I spent my time with you.
