"What are you doing up so late?
School and responsibilities await,
you need your sleep for the morrow"

I lay awake because all my thoughts take her shape
If I close my eyes,
I will only dream of her essence
In my nightmares,
I can hear her screams

"Go to sleep; she'll be back
Don't let her turn you into an insomniac
You're sleep deprived and full of sorrow"

What if she's awake at one in the morning?
Does she want me there,
to hold her in the dark?
It be worth the suffering,
if I only knew she dreamt of me once
