1am to 3am Refusal to endorse the typical behavior one might partake in at this time. Still awake, but feeling trapped by sleep's scheme. It's like we are forced to close our eyes each night and open come morning. But what if I want to resist?
3am to 5am. These are the best a 24 hour period can hold. Magical things happen when you lose your will to sleep. You realize you have been living with eyes wide open, constantly asleep. That only when you deny your eyelids their longing kiss, will you truly fall awake.
5am to 7am. You have planned out most of your day tomorrow. Eagerly awaiting a trip to your favorite early morning cafe or diner. What a great feeling to be awake when you really shouldn't be. It's a small taste of nostalgia from grabbing cookies out of the forbidden jar. You get a sense of content as you let the remaining hours of the night drift. Think about the most amazing fresh shower in a couple hours.
7am to 9am Living in the moment with just yourself. It is great to know the world exists not in your bedroom, but for these few hours, you were able to block it out. You are up late but not contemplating.
