baby.. -
is it weird i call you that?
you said it's fine
but i don't know if it is.
i want to call you other things
but i don't know what is okay
and what isn't.
i know that i wont find out
unless i ask
but asking is scary.
i just want you to tell me
what you like to be called
for a nickname.
i shouldn't overthink
something as simple
as this.
but somehow i am.
and i miss you so much
that im going insane.
my body keeps making me feel
this weight that isn't there.
this feeling of you
laying on me.
but you're not there.
you're not here.
you're not with me.
....
you're not with me.
i can't sleep.
why can't i sleep?
im overthinking.
again.
