Sleeping in the middle of the bed
there's no my side/your side
when you're gone

I sleep alone
or I try
but the ghosts of my past are lurking
in the shadows
and you're gone

I can't sleep alone




There's no my side/your side
when you're not home
I never could sleep alone

and then he moves inside of me and
remind me I'll never be alone again
and you'll be home

for the first time I know
someone will come
& you will love me-

Maria -

wonderful to read you too

i know the feelings this piece conveys all too well.

loved the spacing...
the short, concise stanzas...
and of course... the imagery
