Julianna May

When you were here I fell asleep so quickly..
With the way you curled up behind me,
Hugging me closer,
And buried your face in my shoulder,

I fell asleep with my hand on your chest,
How I loved to feel your breathing,
Our legs swirled together
And your fingers laced in my hair.

And when we were out,
In the middle of a crowd,
Your eyes were only for me,
As if I were a royal queen.

Now you’re gone… And I can’t sleep.
My heart feels all that it has lost
So fully… I can bear it only so long.
My hands are empty, and your eyes are no longer on me.
