2am is more like an uncalled-for me-time. Like a fragrance kept safe for special occasions. It does its trick but people don’t recognise you with that scent. Even better, what if people didn’t recognise you at all? You’ll be at a lesser risk of being judged. Being a different person everyday will be your new high. ‘Starting afresh will come in handy. You’ll have only 24 hours to like, dislike or know someone. Until you know that that person has become a memory. I often do that with my 2am moments. Forget who I met and poured-out-to at that time. Time for some but a lifetime for me. 2am, do you promise to always accept me as who I am?

2am and me
2am is more like an uncalled-for me-time. Like a fragrance kept safe for special occasions. It does its trick but people don’t recognise you with that scent. Even better, what if people didn’t recognise you at all? You’ll be at a lesser risk of being judged. Being a different person everyday will be your new high. ‘Starting afresh will come in handy. You’ll have only 24 hours to like, dislike or know someone. Until you know that that person has become a memory. I often do that with my 2am moments. Forget who I met and poured-out-to at that time. Time for some but a lifetime for me. 2am, do you promise to always accept me as who I am?
