I can't stop

I can't stop thinking about you.
You slithered your way into my head again
In the dead of night when I should be sleeping...
And I, I'm not sure what to do or to say
To get you to evacuate this place.
Let me close my eyes and fall asleep
Without bitter sweet memories of you
Curled up in bed against me,
Your hot skin warming me...
On the one night I never wanted sleep.
Please let me settle down against my pillows
Without memories of how you smelled...
And how you tasted when my tongue met yours for the first time.
I can't stop thinking about you,
But only in the dead of night when nothing moves,
And everything is still again....
When I'm dancing the line between awake and not
You whisper your name into my ear
To keep me awake, keep me in fear
Of never being in that bed again
With my blood on your tongue
And your teeth on my neck,
With my arm draped around your waist
And you finally asleep in my loving embrace.
