Insomnia
  3 am
  My eyes lullabied the desire of rest
  So I decided to write you my heart
  Tried to call but just can’t dial,
  My fingers twitched as I pressed the 6,
  Trembled as the 0 appeared,
  Cramped before I could type in the 9
  
  Professing all my love,
  Confessing all my wrongs,
  It’s you that I want
  Some say,
  “No climb too high when you want it,
  No valley too low when you want it”
  Still, it’s you that I want
  End of the Earth is my destination,
  With only the urge of making it alright,
  Making us alright
  It’s you that I need
  You say I made you feel like everything you did wasn’t enough,
  But it’s my own insecurities,
  They’ve gotten the best of me
  It may be too late, yet I still hold on to what once was
  I am going under insomnia
  Up all night, need my mind to rest
  But it’s lost,
  Lost in the thought of you not here
  I called your name,
  I swear I heard a reply, just the memories I have on repeat
  All wounds heal in time
  But you left with the scars before they had the chance
  Missing a good thing now that it’s gone,
  Unsure of the right, now I know that this is all wrong
  Undone, empty,
  I need you to come back,
  Refresh my heart, and keep me sane
