Staying Awake

Nighttime has come and I am wide awake

My mind drifting off to a situation in which you partake 

No distracting surroundings, just an empty setting

An occupied mind, a whole world I am forgetting

My brain giving only you its full attention

How this can be is beyond my comprehension

My thoughts had many places to go to

Nonetheless they turned towards you

You enable me to leave all worries behind

By occupying the entire space in my mind

Weighty wonder, pensive powerlessness

Every thought of you I still try to suppress

Because I want to control every aspect of my existence

But my mind is unable to keep you at a distance 

Making me wonder about the irrefutable fact

You influence my life with great impact

Irrational reliance, demanding dependence 

Uncertain if my mind is blessed with your attendance

Forever fearful of an addicted brain

That needs you to remain sane

Restlessness caused by only you

Sleepless nights I have become used to

But if you're the reason behind it then

I don't care if I never sleep again

Nicely written. You must of stayed up for hours writing this. It would have been on my mind until I was done it. (I just played on your poem LOL)
Very enjoyable read as most people who has some type of responsibility can relate.

Thank you for sharing!
