Everynight Poem by Atlantic Shay

I lay in bed trying to sleep
But I never seem to get a peep
You always appear
In my dream which is what I fear

I remember the night we started to date
It happened oh so very late
At night after all the talking we did
I couldn’t stop smiling like a little kid

All I wanted was to see you
And that’s when I knew
I definitely wanted to be with someone
Who made me have a lot of fun

Seeing your face for the first time after wee started to date
Made me see you were more than just a mate
You brought to my face a smile
It stretched over a mile
When I met your mum and dad
I thought they thought I was mad
They were ace just like their son
For the lottery I must have won

Every minute I would spend with you
Was like an adventure I never knew
You was a new chapter in my life
I didn’t want to end it with a knife.

Memories of us laid upon your comfy bed
Float around inside my head
Your arms around my body tight
Us having a little play fight.

Memories of us watching TV
Is all I seem to see
Inside my dreams they appear
Every night they’re the one thing I fear.
Reminders of times we shared
And days when we both cared
For each other are all around
And in Garforth most of them are found

I remember bonfire night
With you and your parents surrounded by fire light
Starring up into the starry sky
Oh so very high.

Sat down side by side hand in hand
Me dreaming of a different land
A land so far away
It can’t be ruined no matter what people say

Away from you I was sad
It felt oh so very bad
Apart of me felt missing
Especially as you I weren't kissing.
Your lips were amazing to kiss
They are just one of the many things I miss
Your body was hot
Even if you thought not

Your hair was fab
Like no hair I’ve seen on a lad
So soft and brown
For hair like yours you deserve a crown.

It was amazing when straight
Even if it made you a bit late
I loved it curly too
Who’d have knew

Your sky blue eyes hypnotized me
They were the colour of the clear sea
They were eyes I’d never seen
They made me even more keen
Music you liked was fab
To me you were like no other lad
You was something special to me
And it’s something everyone else could see

Your hands so very soft to hold
Especially when you would fold
Them around mine
And allow them to slowly intertwine.

I liked to mess around with your feet
And allow mine to meet
Yours at the end of the bed
While I’d listen to everything you’d said.

I’d love to lay my head
Upon your chest when we’d lay upon your bed
I loved to hear your heart beat
Whilst you’d trap my legs within your feet.
Deep within my chest my heart
Is slowly tearing apart
A big hole is beginning to form each day
It is beginning to fill with dismay!

Wish we could get back together
And next time, hopefully we’d last forever
I really love you still
And always will!
