I Miss You

Why can’t I sleep at night?
I’ve asked myself this once or twice
Why do I just roll around?
Instead of dreaming vividly
 
It’s like my mind won’t let me rest,
Almost as if it adheres to this,
This fateful statement of the witch
“There ain’t no rest for the wicked”
 
But maybe it’s more than that
My head and mind spinning recklessly
Trying to make sense of the world around
And what crazy things happened that day
 
Now yet still, it could be
My body screaming in agony
From a long day’s toil and trouble
But that would mean it wants to rest
 
While all these things would make some sense
In my gut I know it’s not true
For the other reasons may contribute
But they have nothing to do with you
 
How am I supposed to fall asleep?
Without your warmth beside me
How am I supposed to rest?
When I can’t feel your heart, in time with mine
 
Despite all of my musing
I know why I lay awake
And it’s because of my lonely heart
Lonely, because I’m not with you
 
I miss you
