Lying Awake Poem by Madeleine Wolf

Lying Awake



I lie awake at night
Thinking of you.
Is it really right
To feel so blue?

I stare at the ceiling
While I think.
I’m pondering this feeling
That’s got my mind on the blink.

I wish things hadn’t been said
That made me cry.
That made me feel dead,
And want to pass you by.

I’m being eaten away at
By my love.
First my mind goes,
The pain penetrates to my toes.

What am I supposed to do
With myself?
Deny my feelings,
And put them back on the shelf?
