Insomnia

On nights like this,
As sleep escapes my world
by lightly brushing my eyelashes,
The dimly lit lamp standing on my table,
looks like a drowsy exhausted sun,
in the bitter shadows of the cold room.
The light beam doesn’t reach my forcefully closed eyelids,
As I surrender myself,
to the dead silence of the ghostly night.

As darkness pulls the curtain down,
I try to loose myself in this solitude
But your unseen presence haunts me,
in this subtle tranquility,
as you vaguely appear out of the thick darkness
Silently touching me with your fingertips…
Gently kissing my lips...
Once again, my temptations break all the barriers
My blood cells start running frantically through the blue veins,
Like deafening drumbeats, my heart vibrates
Every single inch of me tries to feel you with all my senses

While my hands hysterically search for you,
it only hits back the disappointing thin air
I discover myself alone with a throbbing vacant heart
in this empty room at 4 am in the morning
