Alone- deafening silencing erupting
around me.
Nowhere to escape
Nowhere to be.

Just me, myself and I
While half unconscious you lie
Burying your mind in the realm
of peaceful sleep.

Wide awake I will stay
For at least a few more hours I'd say
I can't be mad at you for the silence
I only have myself to blame.

Cause of my own demise,
Oh, what a shame

You're asleep
and I am so very awake
with far too much to explain.

*or maybe I'm just lonely
