It’s 9:22pm but there is still daylight in may head.
struggling to fall asleep
wishing you were here with me
I yearn for our cuddles
Its 10 past 10, checking the time again
as an excuse to pick up my phone.
Sleeping alone has gotten comfortable,
but I still long for you hot leg on top of my thigh
holding me in place all night.
12:03 still wide awake
I play a round of after dark DJ
to see if this desire will fade away
and I can finally sleep.
The game ends quietly
I’m imagining you here with me
giving me a round of applause with my thighs and yours.
It doesn’t work
2: 42 Still thinking about you
and the things you do.
I try to take melatonin instead.
how can you miss someone you haven’t met.
Why is a stranger floating in my head
My love, a queen in a king sized bed all alone is strange.
Come home.
3:33 with a weighted blanket on top of me
and more melatonin than a girl could need,
I finally fall asleep.
you name on my lips.
Hoping to see you in my dreams
so we can share a kiss
and reminisce about the times to come.
