I Sleep Alone
By K chan
It's haunting meSitting over thereSo large and lonelyIt hurts not to careI pull the covers backSo reluctantly Tightly, with no slackI won't fall freeI tumble awayFrom realityDon't want to stayI want you with meOpen my eyesBut you're not hereI'm cut down to sizeHope no longer nearIt's just a bedNot much moreThoughts in my headFeet swing to the floorNo one lies beside meI am aloneNo matter how far I flyAlways on my ownI'm beginning to discover that most of the poems of mine that I consider 'good' are short-line ones. *Blinks* This one in particular expresses my sadly over-used theme of being lonely.
