Overthinking Is Eating Me Alive

Did I dream of you last night Or did we dream of us I fell asleep crying into The gaps in my memories And somewhere inbetween The whispers and the silence Your lips told me you missed me to Or Was it just a dream Do you Is it lonely out there Without my laugh to Punctuate your moments Do you imagine my eyes as you Gaze out over the abyss Are you better off now Are you glad you left now Have your hands found Anywhere else to call home Do you wish you could Hold me again Kiss me Is this just my mind grasping For strings of reason or Are you thinking of me too I wish I knew I wish you'd tell me But that was the problem All along, wasn't it I still can't believe in us Without your confirmation I still don't know if you Ever loved me at all Though I feel your pain Inside each of my bones Through I hear your voice In the depths of my dreams Telling me the things that Your real lips never could I still don't let myself believe That it was real though I Felt your fingers reach my soul I don't know if it was real For you, though you said it was Why did you leave me here Why wasn't it worth keeping safe Why wasn't I worth fighting for If it was real... why am I here alone

Oh this is so sad and I felt every word of it. Some great phrasing really packs a punch. "..Without my laugh to Punctuate your moments... Have your hands found Anywhere else to call home...Though I feel your pain Inside each of my bones...If it was real... why am I here alone" I have felt such pain. This poem really resonated with me. Beautiful, painful, romantic and poetic! Great poem!
