The words refuse to leave my mouth,
but I cannot deny the truth,
as I lay alone, miserable in my own bed

Sadness wraps around me like a blanket
my arms are tight around my pillow,
but they limp with sorrow,
as they crave your presence

"Do not speak"
I won't; I do fear the demons that will leave my mouth
My stubborn tongue should obey my brain,
just this once

I am hopeless as lay in bed and,
Miss the sleep I desperately need
You remain oblivious and deaf to my despair
