Sleep.A Poem by Rae
You.
So simple, so meaningful. You buzzing through my head. Why won't you let me sleep? I've waited for what seems like hours. But it's not. Seconds pass like minutes, minutes like hours. You slow my entire thought process. I don't understand it. Let's try and figure this out, shall we? Let's take time. It's been two hours. I began thinking at 1:48 a.m. Do I dare check the clock... 1:49. So much for two hours. What's wrong with me? You never do this to me. Why now? I just want to sleep. Sleep and rid my thoughts of you. Why won't you let me? I have to wonder... Are you thinking of me, too? at this very second, are you having the same thoughts as I am? Or are you thinking of her? You told me you don't even know her that well. Was it a lie? Do you know my secret, and only want to protect my fragile heart? Have I given myself away? Do I give you a special look? I can't tell. I get lost in you every time I try. Every moment we spend together, I cherish it so. Why can't they last longer? And again... Why can't you let me sleep? Please. Just let me rest. Please. © 2011 RaeReviews
