I lie awake in my bed,
Pitch black and cold air spread.
White noise hums to calm my nerves,
Yet sleep retreats, a fate undeserved.

My eyes wide open, the room feels vast,
Shadows dance, but the moments last.
Memories of us still haunt my mind,
Echoes of love, so unrefined.

I hear your voice in the silence,
A bittersweet, aching reliance.
Whispers linger, soft but clear,
Carving your presence, always near.

Our stolen glances, a fleeting spark,
Lit brighter in secrets kept in the dark.
Our deep conversations, our tangled confessions,
Now cast a shadow of quiet questions.

Did we falter, or did we fight?
Was our love wrong, or almost right?
A puzzle unsolved, a heart in despair,
Longing for answers beyond repair.

The nights stretch long, the stillness wide,
I wrestle with ghosts I cannot hide.
But as the dawn creeps into view,
I wonder if you lie awake too.
