Sleep...
Where are you?
We had such plans
I was excited
You were waiting
And the dreams,
the dreams would've been awesome.
Sleep...
Where are you?
You're so distant these days
I'm not sure why
I bought new pillows
And a heater that actually works
New PJs too
Sleep...
Where are you?
I've stopped drinking tea
So late at night
And I always use the facilities
A little light reading
To make the eyes heavy
Sleep...
Where are you?
You seem to arrive but
Then you're gone
And I'm tossing and turning
Every little sound is loud
Each one waking me more
Sleep...
Where are you?
I'm running on fumes
I'm sorry we fell out
I'll go to bed earlier
I'll stop scrolling my phone
I miss you
