3 A.M.
June 29, 2017
At 3 in the morning,
your eyelids refuse to droop
as things you've decided to forget
crashes like tidal waves
all at once
At 3 in the morning,
memories visit you
like unwanted guests
eager for a temporary shelter
for them to be remembered
At 3 in the morning,
You are left with questions
after questions that shall
always remain homeless
because the answers dwell
on the person sleeping
soundly at 3 in the morning
where his thoughts
are none of you.
None of you.
