I could hear the tossing and turning, at various points throughout the night, although I did my best to ignore it every time I was conscious of it. I furrowed my brows and tried to will myself back to sleep. I could tell my body was just surviving at this point, I was low on gas in the tank.

You were crystal clear like
No clouds in the night sky.
Stars twinkling in the distance.
Our reflection in the lake.
When you told me
That you loved me.

I would never know true love,
I would spend my time searching for it,
In everyone I met.
