Nights Like These
heartofglass Jan 2020
Nights like these
I wake up covered in sweat, despite the cold
Scared when I realise this is just a dream
Tears when I realise reality is just as bad
Dreaming I could pretend I still hear your voice

Nights like these
Even in my dreams it's never your face
Just your voice
Or your number on my phone
541 days since you held my hand
But I'll still close my eyes to catch a glimpse of you
Nights like these
They say time heals wounds. They lie.

It reminds of you
heartofglass Feb 2020
Days spent busy
I take care that I don't have time to think
It creeps up at night though
The pain
It feels good though
It reminds me of you

I make sure there is nothing left of you
I make sure to remember it just as a good dream
Then it creeps through my window at noon
The sunlight
It reminds me of you

If I dream of you
I wake up and dare not sleep again
Weep as much as I want to
But take care to smile after
And then it sinks
My heart and it hurts
But I don't mind
Because it reminds me of you.
