I awake from this nightmare one to many times before.
My heart is beating at my ribcage and I am sweating from every gland, I reach for your comfort to help me calm down.
I reach and pat your empty side of the bed.
You're gone.
And you're gone, I know this, yet I still reach for you, still hoping that you will turn to me and make me smile.
But you can't, not any more.
I turn over in my bed once more. Eyes wide open as I think of how to sleep.
It's called cinder blocks because that's how my eye bags feel. Like cinder blocks.
