Late Night Feelings

It's 11:59 and I'm wide awake,

Eyes stinging and red and for some

Reason I cant get you out of my head.

I lie here awake staring straight up

And what do i see?

Nothing but my shadow looking down upon me

I lie here awake hoping for a miracle

For me to drift off into my fantasy world.

Where no pain exists only happiness resides,

Where love and laughter brew and where fear hides.

But I'm still lying awake doubting that this time

My dreams will take me away.

It wouldn't be the first time so I'm not surprised,

I think about you a lot... I just cant keep you out of my mind.

It's frustrating to me how I go round in circles

I try and repel you from my thoughts

But then you come back stronger in my mind and haunt what I feel.

I doubt you think as in depth as me

You don't know true love but you know how to make it hurt.

You twist what I feel and turn it into a weapon

And then use it against me until it burns.

I want to leave my thoughts in the past,

But every time I lay eyes upon you

The emotions come flooding back.
