My bed, a battleground at night
Where shadows dance and demons take flight
The past awakens, a haunting refrain
Echoes of memories that bring only pain

I try to sleep, but my mind won't cease
Racing thoughts, a never-ending tease
The clock ticks on, a steady beat
As I lie awake, my heart skips a repeat

Nightmares creep in, like thieves in the dark
Stealing peace, leaving only a spark
Of fear and anxiety, a lingering dread
That clings to me, like a shroud on my bed

Memories of what's past, they still remain
Haunting me, like a ghostly strain
I try to shake them, but they won't depart
Leaving me wakeful, with a heavy heart

The night wears on, a slow and painful crawl
As I toss and turn, with no escape at all
From the horrors that haunt me still
A prisoner of my past, against my will

Dawn breaks slowly, a welcome reprieve
But even daylight can't banish the grief
That lingers within, a constant ache
A reminder of the nightmares that I've made

So I'll face another day, weary and worn
Hoping that tonight will bring a peaceful morn
But until then, I'll hold on tight
And pray that someday, I'll find a peaceful night.

Across the miles, my heart beats for you,
A lonely rhythm, that echoes true,
In the silence of night, I feel your absence deep,
A hollow ache, that only your presence can keep.

Sleep eludes me, as I lay alone,
The bed feels vast, without your warmth to call home,
I toss and turn, with restless sighs,
Longing for the comfort of your loving eyes.

But even in the darkness, hope shines bright,
For soon we'll bridge the distance, and make it right,
We'll wake up together, in a shared morning light,
And never again, will we have to say goodnight.

Until then, we'll chase the miles away,
With plane rides and road trips, we'll seize the day,
Eight hours of driving, or a flight across the sky,
Will be worth it all, just to see you smile and sigh.

Those stolen moments, we'll cherish and hold tight,
Making memories, that will last through the night,
Laughter and whispers, in a crowded place,
Stolen glances, that speak a thousand words of love and space.

Our love is strong, it knows no bounds,
It leaps across the distance, with a gentle sound,
It whispers sweet nothings, in my ear at night,
" Hold on, my love, we'll make it through this fight."

So I'll hold on tight, to the thought of you,
And know that soon, our hearts will beat anew,
Together under one roof, we'll live and grow,
And never again, will we have to let go.

Until that day, I'll dream of you at night,
And wake up with a smile, knowing it's almost in sight,
The miles will fade away, like a disappearing haze,
And our love will shine brighter, in a brand a new phase.
