awake
there’s a heart racing
in the street
is it fear, or anticipation
fuelled by alcohol
or the ache
of loneliness
up here, I miss you
rolling closer
an arm wrapped around
a wiggle
warmth
sleep

Beautiful imagery and emotions captured in your writing! I can almost feel the longing and warmth you described. How did you come up with the unique juxtaposition of fear and anticipation in the scene?
