Why?
My eyes are not tired.
My head is full of thoughts.
You haunt them.
And when I finally lie down to rest,
a solitary moment of peace before
you slip right back in.
I close my eyes and see you,
I dream you.
I wake and you remain
in the back of my mind.
I try to see you
and get you out of my system,
yet the memories replay.
Why,
at 6:49 do you still linger
here in my thoughts?
Let me be.
It's 6:50
I must be off to bed soon.
I'll see you there.
