i turn over yet again
toss and turn and toss and turn
a restless night
a restless life
i stare at the ceiling
giving up on sleep at all
glance at the clock
2:15 am it reads
2:15 am and i can’t sleep
2:15 am and all i can think of is you
2:15 am
a minute passes, 2:16
another, 2:17
but thoughts of you stay constant
never ending
a stream of memories
of wishes
of desire
by 2:24 am i drift off again
but dreams never free of you
your smiling face
your warm hugs
you.
