sleepless

here is a poem i wrote last year, at a major point in my life. and since i changed my blog title, i thought that this would make an appropriate "first" post.

sleepless
(5/21/2006)

i'm losing sleep over you
and i don't know what to do
you're an itch i can't scratch
a butterfly i can't catch
a dream that i want to come true

i'm losing sleep over you
and there's not much i can do
but to lie awake at night
wishing i may, wishing i might

i'm losing sleep over you
and there's nothing i can do
but to wait
and hope
and lose sleep
over you
