This is the hard part. Laying down at the end, needing to sprawl out and sleep. The sheets are comfortable, the pillows welcoming. I force myself to put away the apps and social media, cause every couple minutes counts.
But I'm alone. No one to put my arm around, kiss good night, curl into a ball with. Just me. Alone. I'm tired but I don't want to surrender to sleep. I don't want to lay alone. I want to know the answer to which side is mine.
