Insomnia

No sleep for me,
insomnia takes my breath,
the silent beat of my own heart
is all that I have left.

I wish to die,
but I want to live,
depression is all I have,
my love is all I give.

I gave to you
what I gave to no one,
I fear I'll never get it back,
my heat is what you won.

I want to pass out,
I am so tired,
but insomnia is in my brain,
and sleeping is desired.

to sleep; to breathe;
to dream of you,
thinking of your kiss,
if only it could be true.

I miss you, I want you,
to feel your warm embrace,
I wish to feel the sweetest touch:
your hand upon my face.
