Alone
I lie alone in my bed, holding my pillow tight wishing it were you.
It feels like someone is there with me,
But a void of nothingness is along with it.
An emptiness that can only be filled with your presence.
To feel your chest fall up and down with every breath you take.
To hear your heartbeat pounding against my ear.
Just to realize it is just a pillow and not you.
It brings me back to that state of being alone.
I know that one day you will be beside me once again.
It will only be then that i will know what peace, a sense of security,
and fulfillment will be like again.
Until then i must sleep,
holding my pillow tight,
And dream of you here in my arms.
