Eyes Like Diamonds, World Like Dirt

So another sleepless night
Another midnight wide awake
The clock-table is stuck on three
It has been like that all day
Five cups of tea are empty
They bring no comfort now
I love you without reason
Reasons don't do my good right now

So I dreamt the other night
To see if I still can
I saw a blurry picture
You and me were holding hands
But dreams aren't ever as clear
As nightmares seem to be
Almost as if a glass wall
Stood between the image and what I see

I woke up the next morning
Tears filled my eyes like rain
I swallowed down the heartbreak
To that part of chest that holds the pain
I believe all people have that
It feels like your heart is dead
Trapped by chains and squeezed
Show by bullets forged from lead

This poem was never happy
But is that so far from normal
Writing thoughts I always think
A happy poem seems informal
But is formal all I strive to be?
No, I strive to show you more
I love you, girl, I love you
Thinking of you at half past four

The words I say are slurring
Like I've had way too much to drink
But I wouldn't do something to numb the pain
I guess I had too much to think
And all I've been thinking about is your lips
I've been thinking about your kiss
My God Breanne, you know how
To give me something to miss

The poem is over shortly
I think that that is fair
I love you and I miss you
I still see you everywhere
You're eyes shine like diamonds
In a world full of cheap dirt
I love you, I love you, I love you
I'll still love you when it hurts.
