My nerves keep me from sleeping I wish I weren't alone. The house is creaking My mind keeps thinking How will I go on?
I know I must sleep But I'm afraid to wake Afraid to face what's ahead Even if it's for my benefit.
This bed is empty My heart grieves for one I do not know Maybe if you were here This house would feel like home.
I recently found this one I wrote in December, and at the end I added, "What are these words even" I couldn't tell if it was part of it or just my reaction after.
