It's one of those nights
when I stay up thinking about you,
hoping that wherever you are,
a thought or two
crosses your mind about me.
But these are only daft hopes
that dance across my mind,
when I have dreamless sleep
and sleepless nights.
I'm so tired it hurts to breathe.
And a sigh of your name would surely kill me.

I can so relate to this, and that hurts. those lonely nights are definitely the worst. I like the second stanza best, the imagery is beautiful, but sad. keep thinking about the good things and surely it will get better.
goodluck and thanks for entering

A lovely read despite the shortness-but it needed no more really-well penned-
