Almost impossible

by Beautiful Tragedy   Feb 25, 2019


Once you get a taste of falling asleep next to someone you love;
Sleeping alone feels impossible.
The last week spent with you really was amazing and-
As I crawl under my covers my twin sized bed has never felt so big.
I take a deep breath as I realize that I already miss the fact that you steal all of the covers,
And that you have a habit of laughing as you rub your icy cold feet against me-
Making me half yelp and half laugh with you.
And I already miss that you sometimes take up too much of the bed
and I have to use you yourself as the bed to sleep on;
And how when I wake up in the middle of the night you’re beside me for me to turn around and snuggle up against-
Making me feel comforted and safe in a whole new way.
I’ve only simply crawled into bed after having dropped you off home earlier today-
And I miss all of these things already.
And I know it sounds like I’m overreacting because it hasn’t even been an entire day yet but;
Once you get a taste of falling asleep next to someone you love-
Sleeping alone really does feel almost impossible.

    Anyone who has gone through a breakup or missing someone once loved can relate to this. “Young love” is a beautiful thing.

    Good work
