These sleepless nights,
Under the blanket,
Hugging the pillow.
My mind weighing down
with unknown questions.
Each of them piercing
like sharpest needles.
Blood woozing out
from my heart,
wetting the endless dark
which engulfs me.

Turning left then right in my bed
Hoping for a sleep,
To see you in my dreams.
Your smiling eyes,
Your laughing sound,
even your smell is still lively.

WISHING FOR A HUG.........
A warm hug from you like those
under the snowy rain.
A sweet hug from you like those
amidst the blossom flowers.
A gentle hug from you like those
among the autumn fall.
A HUG FROM YOU TO TURN ALL THOSE
QUESTION MARKS IN MY MIND INTO
BEAUTIFUL EXCLAMATIONS OF HEART.
A hug to reassure you are still
here for me............
