Nights have never been so lonely.
Because we were always up when the world slept. We were alive even when we thought ourselves to be dead inside. We were. And then we weren't. Nights have become dead. So every night I lie in bed; wait for sleep to seize me. And it doesn't. So I cry for you. I stare at the ceiling knowing you're up staring at yours too. And I wait. I wait for you to call me. And when you don't. The tears continue to flow.
