My Willis

I Lie Awake

I lie awake in my room.
Staring past the blank ceiling.
Reminiscing our warn embrace.
I cannot explain the feeling.

I try to close my eyes and sleep
Not to wake until morning.
My eyes break open and I repeat.
Staring past my blank ceiling.

I don't know why, but I feel content
Thinking of you next to me.
I know that this crazy thing named love
was meant between you and me.

I journey through memories we've shared.
I dare to dream of our future together.
I'm spending my life with someone who cares.
I know things will only get better.

Everything near seems so far.
You're not here, but yet you are.
I'm ecstatic when I am eith you.
I feel so satisfied when only thinking of you.
