"The Things That Love Says..."

“Aching to be held by you, I tossed and turned all night. I closed my eyes and pictured you in my mind. I remembered the intricate details of your sleeping face, the way your body emitted heat - pulling me into your orbit, and I remember the calm feeling that passed through me when you were next to me. 

Whenever I sleep alone, I pretend that I’m with you, in your room, in your bed. The minute I think about you, I enter a calm state. I relive the nights spent with you and it helps me sleep. I hate sleeping alone after I know what it’s like to sleep next to you - I dread it, because all I want to do is wrap myself around you. There is no greater feeling than sleeping next to the one you adore. Sleeping alone never feels the same.”
