Good Night, Sweet Love

I'm sorry,
I needed to talk to you,
But it's late...
The sun will rise at any moment.
There's not a soul to talk to.
The silence here is deadly.
My ears, they ring so.
Fatigue,
Or tears, I'm unsure,
Blurr my eyes.
My muscles are too tight,
Below my head.
It feels as if
Someone is digging their fingers there.
My hearbeat unusually strong.
I seem to rock with every beat.

I'm frightened...

Maybe I need rest?
But will my legs carry me
To my bed?
I'm sorry...
My mind is racing.
I'm so unsure of my thoughts.

I love you...

That's one thought,
That screams with no mercy.
My heart, it pangs with grief,
Because I miss you so.
Oh, my hands they shake.
Perhaps I should go to my bed,
And rest the head that's so heavy,
On the tight muscles of my neck.

If only you could see...

The bags of insomnia
Under my eyes.
See the love,
Laced with loneliness
In my irises.
The black emptiness
Of my pupils.
The hole that may never fill.
I love you so
Forever and Always

Good night, sweet love...good night.

Reminds me of my relationship with Lori, how we're separated by a thousand miles
or so.

Only, I think of the joy she brings,
not the sadness of her absence.

my love and are separted by a great distance as well, bsquirrel.  And I try to think of the good things, rather than the bad.  But somethins those bad just cant help but overwhelm. I'm not a very strong individual.  
Thank you all for your praise!!
