I can’t sleep

I can’t sleep since you’ve been here.
I lie in bed and feel you next to me, but you’ve left.
I miss the feel of your hair through my fingers, the warmth of your cheek as my fingertips dance along your jaw.
I miss the softness of your lips on mine.
Our bodies pressed together finally embraced after so long apart.
I can’t sleep since you’ve been here.
I lie in bed and feel my heart begin to race as I think about the three little words, said so often but this time said with purpose.
I can’t sleep since you’ve been here.
