Hallucinations

15

So while you're deep sleeping
And I'm here a vigil keeping.
While I can't seem to sleep 
As the world around is asleep. 
While I lie on my left side__ 
And you suddenly cross my mind; 
Making my heartbeat seem loud, 
And the thoughts of you race round__ 
Making me wish you were here 
So I can hold you tight dear. 
But since it's not the case, 
I wish at least you visit my dreams. 

I turn and lie on my back, 
But of sleep, there's still a lack. 
Wanting to sleep, I begin to huff 
Knowing in the morning, I'll feel rough. 
I snuggle down under the cover 
My body wants one thing, my heart another. 
Love has dragged me under its spell 
And for you, made me deep fell. 
I crave your touch, look and voice, 
That I can't have because of distance, time and place. 
Knowing that, I lie here, looking at the ceiling,
Trying to write just how I'm feeling.
