Sleeplessness & Airports


Alone at night
I turn out the light
Imagine your warmth.

Cuddle up with my pillow
But I sure do know
It's not you there.

Need overwhelming
I cry sometimes.

I sat on a chair
Wishing you were there
But still 3 months away.

With anticipation burning
Butterflies inside churning
How I wanted you.

Forgotten so much
I ache sometimes.

Not hearing your voice
It isn't our choice
But someday soon.

I'll hold you tight
With all of my might
For the rest of our lives.
