While I lie in bed at night
absorbing thoughts and darkness
I wonder why I hurt and need
conforming thoughts to hide this

Why does it hurt to lie alone
what fuels the need of needing
we're born alone and die but one
but yet of one we're pleading

What feels so good 'bout knowing
that someone else is here with me
in darkness no-one's showing
open eyes, yet still cant see

This seems foolishly silly
that just knowing makes a difference
it's quite ironic really
yet oh so real in truths sense

Yet time again I lie here
wondering why I wish there was
someone cuddled right there
so I could simply know she was.

Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer.

Excellent thought and writing...those
"silly" thoughts are the ones that often
matter the most...the simple pleasures in
life become the most valued...may you find
all that your heart desires...all the silly
things that you deserve. Terrific writing~

Why IS it so comforting just to know someone's there? I guess, at some level, we're all afraid of being alone. I really like how you've shown that. What a beautiful poem sweetie, I loved it.
