Silent Truth

I tuck my pillow behind my right arm
kicking my left leg out of the sheets
taking in a deep breath
I toss to my left side
2:27am
I curl into a ball
the blanket to my chin
only to lay on my back shutting my eyes
wishing my mind would take a rest
3:48am
It's too hot
Throwing the blankets off my sweating body
taking a walk
It's too cold now
4:02am
The tossing turning into frustration.
Just knowing...
It doesn't matter where I am
What type of thread count sheets I have
How many pillows surround me

I can't sleep without you.
