A whole lot of nothing...

the night has fallen
it's so quiet i can hear my heart beat
this is when my mind starts racing 
i can't make it stop
sometimes,
i don't really want to

i wonder if other insomniacs go through this as well
wondering
thinking
regretting
longing
worrying
battling inner demons

as tired as my body is
my mind is on overdrive

do you miss me at all?
are you sorry?
was everything a lie?

i miss you
and i'm sorry
and nothing was a lie

stressing 
debating
plotting
rambling

it's what i do best at 12:49 a.m.
