It's Your Fault I Don't Sleep

I hate sleepless nights
Mostly because
It's your fault.

You keep me up.
The thought of you
Keeps me from getting any sleep,
When all I want
Is to sleep and forget.

It's the thoughts
That keep me awake.
The thought of your smile,
The thought of your laugh,
Your bright eyes,
Your soft voice.
The thought
Of your lips
Against mine,
And,
The thought that,
None of that is mine anymore.

The thought that
I lost you
Keeps me
From getting one minute
Of sleep.

God, do I hate sleepless nights.
