The other world

I sit here
At 5:33 in the morning
For the past
3 nights I haven't been able to sleep
This morning,
I decided to go sit
Outside
And I’m glad I did
The world is so quiet at this time
The sky is a blueish purple
But where the sun touches the sky
It’s a blueish pink
The crisp morning air bites at my skin
I hear more bird calls and songs
Than I’ve ever heard at once
They chirp
They sing
They yell
They cry
They surround me
Not to mention
The quiet crickets that cheer them on
It feels like
I entered a world that was not entirely mine
As the world brightens
From a soft hue
I close my eyes
And let it consume me
For even a moment
