Sleepless Soliloquay

Unpublished: Exception Facebook.

I can't sleep...

I don't know where you are

     Who you're with

          What you are doing

Every noise is you returning

     Sweeping me into your arms

          Reassuring me that everything is OK

Creaking doors

     Footsteps going past

          Each noise is you

Then it's not

Once again I am left all alone

    Frightened

        Unable to sleep

I don't know where you are

     I don't know what you're with

          I don't know who you're doing

Is that your scent I can smell on the pillow...

    Mingled with a perfume that's not mine...

          WHAT ARE YOU DOING AND WHY AREN'T YOU HERE?

Being with me...exhausting

     stealing each others breathe...tiring

          collapsing in each others arms...  sleeping

I can't sleep... is that your footsteps I hear?
