What contributes to your sleepless nights?

By Cheyenne MadduxPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

My head is full.

Full of thoughts that I cannot unthink.

Like is it okay to cry like raindrops falling from the sky?

Blindly.

Falling in broken heart shaped beads against your skin.

Not knowing why they are falling.

Not knowing where they will land.

Uncertain...

Are they full of broken words or promises?

Are they full of unforgettable memories you wish you could forget?

Do they feel warm like the way he held you close?

Do they remind you of rain shower kisses?

Do they know why they are falling?

Do you even know?

These are the thoughts I cannot unthink.

And my head is filling...
