Withdrawals

As I lay in my bed
only this dark room surrounds me.
All I can hear
are a few lonely cars
passing outside my window.
My pillow slowly becomes
more damp
with my tears.
I miss you...

wherever you are now.
My body is cold 

even though there are 
stacks of blankets 
covering me.
There's a feeling in my stomach 
that tells me
I'm going to be sick.
Please come back.
            I'm so
lost
                  without 
       you.

Dreamy Night Car Rides

Sitting in the back seat
with your head
against my shoulder
but you have
dozed off
into a peaceful sleep
and I sat there
moving the hair
from your closed eyelids,
admiring all that
you are.
I never wanted
to leave
that moment.
