[ i cant sleep alone ]

i cant sleep alone
i have grown accustom to you being next to me
now that you've left
all i do is lay awake at night
i miss your warm comforting arms
i need to feel you wrapped around me in that wondrously comforting way
you took the last thing i valued in life away from me

you took my independence

i am dependent on you to lay with me at night

i wait for you to come home and protect me

all i ever wanted was your love

now i have your love and an addiction

i am entranced with your love

i can not resist your temptations

i cant sleep alone..i need you back

this is really sad...
but nevertheless a powerful write, full of emotions...
I think everyone who has been in love can relate to how you feel now...
I hope you will find someone special again to sleep next to at night...

take care
