Sleeplessness

by Meme   Sep 10, 2011


It's already 4:00 a.m. but sleep
has abandoned my eyes, once
again I am trapped in a state of
wakefulness.

You intrude my every thought,
invade every part of me, you
became a lullaby that keeps me
awake every night.

My mind keeps telling we can
never be for one another, but
my heart refuses, it can't stop
falling in love with you.

So dear sleeplessness, please
let go of me, slowly retreat this
love, and leave me just this once,
to fall asleep.

    Wow, I love this stanza. I know this all too well. The best decision, right decision, and hardest decision is hard to deal with. I wish you the best.

    Keep smiling!! :)

    This poem touched me. It reminds me of how I felt a few years ago when I liked someone who didn't like me back. I found this poem to be sweetly written yet it had that tinge of sadness to it too.
