I want you to hold me.
I need to feel you there.
Though in dreams we might embrace,
It's those visions the sun will chase,
And leave waking in another empty bed.


Grr, this came out a lot better on paper. You have NO idea. I would have posted that version, but not only do I lack a scanner, but I think when I was visiting my parents my Dad or someone spilled red juice on it or something, so there's a nice red glob on it now. Sad day. :(

Anyway, some background: This is how I've always slept, even since I was but a cub. Not necessarily closest to the wall, but always on the left side of the bed. I don't know why I leave the right open, but some days when I wake up and see nothing but an undisturbed pillow beside me, I just feel like crying. Guess I'm just lonely...
