Such Silent Chaos

Another Night

Another night spent awake.
I can not sleep. 
There's too much of you in here,for my mind to drift off.
You're an anchor to me.
You keep me rooted, so I do not drift into black holes.
So I do not crumble.
It is strange, really.
How, in your vicinity, there isn't enough air for me.
Yet in the quiet of the night, when my mind speaks loudest,
and the weight of my world comes crashing down on my lungs,
you help me breathe.
