I Can't Sleep


I Can't Sleep

I can't sleep you keep racing in my mind 
And when I do sleep I only dream of you 
I hate to be awake without you
I miss every touch every kiss you ever given me
You are consume my every thoughts 
You this ache that is in my heart 
I miss the feel of your lips touching mine every night 
Before we had said goodnight 
I miss the way you touched me my heart with a spark
I'm an absolute wreck!!
Do you see how I am without you in my life  
My mind is always wondering about you over time
Your words are always in my head like o'clock work 
I am constantly wishing and praying that you will find
Your way back with your presumptuous way 
And keep all those words you ever told to this heart of mine
That you had meant what you said! 
You spoke the words of true love but why do I feel so blue
You thought I wanted to hear from others what you are out
doing You have broken my heart in to 
You had fulfilled my worst fear 
You gave me nightmares Just to find out you found someone new
When my heart had been crying out to you

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
