Why won't I close my eyes
This pillow is pulling me in
I can feel myself fade
In the middle of the night
The middle of my thoughts
I can hear the wind blowing outside
But I don't hear your voice
I can hear myself breathing
A steady pace of inhales and exhales
Taking in the air
Which lacks the scent of your hair
Just like an angel's hand on my head
I need you here, To set me free
On a bed of nails I wait, I wait
The nights are painfully long
Made by the presence of your absence
But the thought of a lifetime with you
Doesn't seem long enough
I hold on to the belief
That I will see the light of Day
Brought on by a beautiful sunrise
Born in your eyes.
