Drabble #1

sometimes at night I lie awake and imagine
that I'm leaning against your chest,
listening to your heartbeat but you don't
sit on my right anymore and I can't listen
to it and the sound gets fainter and
fainter and I'm crying tonight, lying
awake because you're going and I can't stop
it and no one wants to say anything
but I'm so empty right now, I can't even
cry too loudly because my parents are
right down the hall and then they would
know how sad I am
