These past few nights
I've found myself
Wide awake
Half naked
On my bed
Sheets between
My body
And the air that compacts
Itself into this box
Of a room
All of this
Because of you
I cannot go to sleep
The wiring of
My nerves
Tingling and twitching
Underneath this
Summer skin
That longs for the
Weekends
All of this
Because of you
And on the nights
Where there is no air
Between my body
And yours
My breathing hitched
My moans all muttered
Is when I get my sleep
All of this
Because of you
It is such a risk
To find a slumber
Deep enough
To hold me under
When all I want
Is you
All of this
Because of you
