Sleeping Alone

Tonight as I lay here,

With you not by my side.

I feel like I'm drifting,

Washed away by the tide.

Lying on my back,

I stare out into the black sky.

With sleep evading me,

I think of trying to fly.

Seeing the empty space next to me,

I feel like I'm completely alone.

Without you here I'm not whole,

My heart cold and hard as stone.

Watching the stars glimmer,

They give me spark of hope.

Knowing that you see them too,

Gives me a way to cope.

Even though you are not here,

And are thousands of miles apart.

Under these same shining stars,

You are with me in my heart.

I know we can't kiss nor touch,

But our love isn't restricted to one zone.

Though I sleep by myself tonight,

I'm never alone.
