-keep in mind that this is the first poem I've ever written so it's not that good-
As I lie awake in the middle of the night
Day dreaming about having you by my side
But there I am thinking, "am I right?"
"Will I make this person happy for the rest of their life?"
And there I am, alone crying to myself
Shouting "I am not good enough" again and again
Put my clarity and reasoning up on a shelf
The only thing I feel when you're away is pain.
The other me takes control over my body
Making sure that I hate myself for what I am
Voices in my head screaming "You're a mess, a nobody"
I sit back and watch me hurt myself like a tv programme
I close my eyes, thinking about a better time,
Dreaming of holding you close to my beating heart,
Kissing me, claiming that "everything will be fine",
Lying together in bed becomes a piece of art.
But as I wake up, I realise that I'm alone,
You're thousands feet away as I lay on the floor,
Loneliness begins to kick in and I can't take it no more
You're all that I need to make the bad things gone.
You're my clarity, my hopes, my dreams, my everything,
I'm sorry I'm obsessed, but your love makes my mood swing.
I am but a shadow and you are my light,
When we finally meet, you'll see it in my eyes.
I love you.
