Not Much

Here I lie,

Unable to sleep,

Wishing you were here.

I know it hasn't been long since I saw you last,

but I miss you.

I need to be near you,

for you to hold me and keep me safe,

While I close my eyes and whisper goodnight.

Your in my mind, in my dreams.

I can see your face when I close my eyes

If only I could close the distance between.

I can still hear your voice

You say "You Love ME! And that it will never change"

You keep the monster at bay,

You keep the Ripper away.

It's not much but I won't give up,

I'll stay human for you

and keep the monsters inside.

It's not much but I love you.
