Sleeping Alone in College

​

By Sydney Sexton

I still can’t get used to sleeping alone.

I think too much about the unknown

One day here and one day there,

but nothing is better than when we share.

The bed is our place, not mine nor yours,

it’s the place where we’re us behind closed doors.

I don’t like sleeping alone.

I’d rather be with you making me moan.

So please don’t leave me here

because sleeping alone is something I fear.
