The stars dancing,

With no other care in this universe,

Dying and living,

Constant, yet always changing,

And we're so unaware,

I always ask myself,

Why do I always end up here?

I can never sleep on nights like this,

Self-doubt and insecurities swim freely in my chest,

Holding me steady,

Like an anchor to my empty bed,

Your voice echoes loud and clear in my ears,

A steady heartbeat flat lined,

Only your shadows follow me now,

Your scent left on a dirty pillow,

My dreams only carry me to memories,

Floating in a fantasy,

Where you once lived,

But don't anymore,

My dreams are an empty shell,

They are a house unlived,

A meal not eaten,

A memory forgotten.
