I can't sleep because of you and my mother's face shows her worry when she finds me wide awake when birds begin to chirp. I say it's summer and kids always stay up this late, it's normal. But I'm sitting here and my whole body is shaking and I get up and pace the floor. Your words haunt my mind and I feel trapped somewhere inside my own brain. I want to get out, I want my heart back, I want to forget you. How I regret that first day we talked. I'm here 6 months later, utterly shattered by you. I can't sleep and my pen seems to be my only friend. I suppose this will suffice because I do not want to sleep and dream of you tonight. I'll stay awake until I see the sun and hope to one day love another one.
