Dead Of Night Poem by Desiree Whitamore

people say its only in my head
they smile down, but they forget.
that i just cant wait around and stay alone
drive across town to just go home
wake up in the dead of night
knowing that everything will be alright.
'cuz i'm finding things to do so i won't fall asleep
cuz maybe my needs were only dreams
thats when i feel you next to me.

i'm the one who's always next to last
and when i leave i'll be gone so fast
you've got to catch your breath.......
