Insomnia

I can't sleep. My head hurts, my heart aches, and this night seems to be taking forever. Where was the interminable darkness,my love, when I laid hot and willing in your arms ? And why does it come now , when you are gone so far from me?

Where was this hollowness of night when we feared to sleep lest we lose some precious second never to be had again? Now I sleep not, for fear the dreams of what could have been will find me.
Where was the stillness of time, when my only want was to memorize every touch, every word, every silk inch of your skin? And now, my love, where is the stillness of my heart when all i can do is remember your taste, and cry ?
