Insomnia

Folder: 
Dedications

I haven't slept a wink because of you

as my thoughts run wild overnight. 

 

If only you could hear all the scenarios 

that play over and over in my head. 

 

It's only been a week but I felt 

like you were becoming important to me.

 

I want you to like me as more than a friend

as my feelings for you start to develop.

 

But I know this is just play-acting 

and sometime soon everything will end.

 

Then the day comes before I expected

and it shatters me with its finality.

 

Now you are gone without a trace,

and I have nothing left but tears and insomnia.
