i held my pen
at 3 AM
with hopes depleting
amidst the air
and then i thought
what to write
is it my sadness
or is it my fright?
i held my pen
at 3 AM
my paper blank
mind all hollow
with another pill
to take and swallow
to sing me to sleep
with its voice so mellow
i held my pen
at 3 AM
with ragged breath
and drooping lids
then the pen slid
out of grasp
along with my
final gasp
