In the darkness of the night
Silence hangs heavy in the air
The weight of grief presses down upon my chest
Each breath catching in my throat
2 A.M. is when my demons come out
They taunt me
And let me know what I am losing
I built my life around you
Never knowing it could come crashing in
2 A.M. is when the pain comes in
Nothing holding it back
I hold in a sob
My chest aches with the effort
I curl in on myself
An attempt to keep
The feeling of cracking
The feeling of breaking
It overtakes my body
I lose my battle
The sobs break free
My body shivers and quakes
2 A.M. when my world sleeps
When the silence is too much
All my haunting thoughts breaking in
The grief overtakes me
I fall apart
No longer able to keep my pieces together

No longer able to keep my pieces together
I am trying to work through and understand some of my past pains.
