I Dreamed Myself To Sleep

Writing prompt on being unable to sleep

I toss and turn all night

Because the thought of losing you

Is too much to handle

I grab the sweatshirt you gave me

From under my bed

And put it on

Just to have your scent on me

A scent I miss so much,

I hug myself because of the thought of you

I knew this was going to be the start

Of many sleepless nights,

I dream about all we had

And the love we shared

I curse myself for not trusting you

Its too late to apologize 

He's already out the door

I'm all alone and its a terrible storm

As I dream myself to sleep

I dream about him forgiving me

And me running into his arms

Being as happy as we use to be

But until then I sit in his sweatshirt 

And hope for the best

But until then I dream myself to sleep

Author's Note

This literally took 5 minutes. I hope its good and you like it.

Interesting Concept.

Our best writing happens when we pour ourselves out in a flurry of words uncluttered by rational thought.
it's lovely.

Hmm... Deep sadness here. A very realistic and nicely written poem. The feelings here are relate-able to most people, I'm sure. This is good. Keep it up!

[Devilish_Light]

This is AMAZING! I know how that feels being alone and wishing you could take things back. holding onto a shirt pretending its him. Pretending nothing happened. I know how the world can change from warm and inviting to dark and cold. This is a VERY Good Poem!
