Lately I have been yearning for a companion to have during lonely nights such as this one. Just somebody to keep me company.
I have had many sleepless nights, but recently it has become unbearable and I can't pin point exactly as to why.
I have felt loneliness many times before - as if it's the only friend I have left to talk to when the day ends, why is it suddenly so different now?I have been beginning to feel anxious and craving the warmth of another being, because lately I feel as if this big bed has gotten colder; the warmth from my blanket and my own body doesn't fill this void anymore, and it's becoming unbearable.
Has loneliness finally started to consume me?
The idea that I am alone and at peace when the world goes to sleep, and I have it all to myself - is suddenly daunting. It does not bring me comfort anymore.
I do not hear anything else except these loud thoughts and my beating heart - filled with worry and anxiety. Why? Why do I feel this way every time?
The sudden urge of wanting to cry but not knowing why... I wished someone was here to hold me. Someone beside me who suffers the same insomnia as I do, so I could spend the rest of the night talking about anything else other than what is bothering me - just to keep the thoughts at bay, even for a short while.
I wish to be embraced, to be hugged dearly - the idea of a loving warmth is what brings me comfort now... but... I wonder why?
Is it really just me realising how lonely I am? Or is it me realising that I wished to be loved?
Loved so much to the point that someone would stay up with me, just to calm me down.Now that I think about it, I have never had anyone like that. Even now. I do not have anybody next to me, on this bed, to console me. To hug me. To talk to me.
No one but my own, and these bothersome emotions.
