How can I go to sleep?

HOW

Just tell me,

Because I can't get you out of my mind.

How can I get you out of my thoughts,

Out of my dreams and daydreams.

I want you in my life, but how do I get you back.

How did I lose you?

It seemed gradual,

Then all at once.

I was torn.

Didn't know how to feel,

For I knew that the beginning was also my fault.

I didn't know that would lead to a sudden change in the wind.

What was once a flourishing garden,

Became a desolate desert.

You left, and stopped giving the flowers any attention.

Before you left,

We were already drifting away,

Yet we somehow managed to give attention to the beautiful flowers we planted together.

But, then you left, almost entirely completely.

I tried to tend to the needs of our flowers.

Only a few died in your absence.

When I get any type of chance to bring you back,

To the breathtaking garden we made,

It only succeeds for a few moments.

I am grateful for those moments,

And so are our flowers.

They long for your attention,

And so do I.

I need you.

I want you.

Come back.

Our garden has become so dried up,

Only 2 cacti remain.

Sometimes I'm able to give them a generous supply of water,

But when will this drought end?

When you come back,

No matter how short,

The drizzle that you bring,

Can make even the most shy flower to come out and play.

You're drizzle brings joy,

To whom?

To me and our garden, no matter how dry and barren it has gotten.

If you're scared that we won't be there for you if you decide to come back,

Don't be.

We will always be here for you.

We will always wait for you.

We need you,

No.

We LOVE you.

But how?,

When you keep yourself away.

How can I prove this,

When you don't respond to the attempts.

But... That shouldn't matter.

If I really love you, I will find a way.

I WILL FIND A WAY.

How?

I guess we'll have to find out.
