it’s another sleepless night.
i stare at my blank ceiling for hours upon hours silently calling for you with bloodshot eyes and a tear stained face.
with only my thoughts to keep me company as they ravage my soul
as the voices in my head begin to drown out my memories… of you
oh, how i miss you.
how i long to spend this night in your embrace.
how i long to be enveloped in your warmth.
It was you that gave me strength, and now you’re gone.
You disappeared without a trace, leaving me behind
why is it that i can never truly get what i want?
it hurts.
so much.
i miss you.
so much.
take me home.
darkness, please i beg you — entrap my soul and never set me free.
only let me awaken to your beautiful smile, to your heartwarming laugh.
it’s another sleepless night,
another lonely night.

it’s another sleepless night,
another lonely night.
for someone i used to know
