How To Break A Habit

There have been studies that suggest

sleeping clutching a pillow releases

the same endorphins as falling asleep 

with a lover-

and I hope it is true as I feel the

hollow lack of a heartbeat against my ear 

as I fall into a restless sleep 

and I have a dream where he shows me

more passion in five minutes 

than he has in an entire year of knowing 

me.

And I know it supposedly takes thirty days 

to make (or break) a habit 

so if I could just

go a month without falling into his arms

maybe I can finally let this go but 

the lure of a chest to sleep on and lips 

on my hair is getting harder 

to resist than my pride is willing to 

admit.
