Oh, the middle of the night

It is currently 2:04am.
At this time we’d usually be talking,
maybe about the universe
and how the stars in your eyes are the only I see.
Maybe we’d talk about our deepest secrets.
I don’t know.

 

I doesn’t matter now
because at this time I am awake,
scared to fall asleep to the thought of you.
Tears stream down my face, which you would usually wipe away.
You’d tell me “Darling, you’ll be okay.”
Now you don’t.

 

I sit here hoping
that maybe one day you’ll know
I listen to the music you said you loved
and it only brings me to the thought of you
and then I never sleep but when I do
I never want to wake up
all because of you.

 

It is currently 2:12am.
I watch myself fall apart,
my emotions stripping me raw.
Just as you did to my heart.
