I lie and wonder
why we are not together.

Unusual!
You do tribute to your emotion in this write! "Unsleeping": bothered, worried, kept from the restful nourishment needed to function. "I lie and wonder": trying to carry on as normal, but thoughts prevent it, feeling tired yet wired, frustrated and exhausted. "why we are not together": the question that circles, occupies too much of your mind, your time; the very reason you can't find the nourishment you are without. Interesting and fresh that you describe 'perplexed', and you do it so well! Very nice job on this! Thank you for the entry!

i was thinking i feel this was quite often,
alone. lonliness takes over me wondering when or if that special someone will show soon.
great job here
best of luck '

interesting, i was actually thinking of lonely, but then again, i dont really know what perplexed means, so maybe it means the same thing. i dont know. but nice job none the less. good luck
