I can’t sleep
without the scent of your pillow
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without you beside me
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without your warm embrace
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without a kiss good night
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without saying I love you
Toss and turn
****
Check out my new book!
Storm of Ink 
I feel this. I like it. I toss and turn, nothing changes. Woke up at 5 AM full blown anxiety. Don’t know where that came from. Awful feeling to wake up to.

Tossing and turning is a night poorly spent. Difficult to sleep alone when we are accustomed to sleeping with a mate. Well expressed in this write.

Beautiful for its sensuality of the scent as a remembrance of warm embraces and also for the sad true of missing the beloved.
