its 2 a.m.
and im wide awake.

nobody is as awake as i am
unless theyre partying,
if they're awake at all.

i message you first
pouring out nothing but love.

i message her
sending her memes and talking about her previous messages
that i never saw until now.

i message him
asking him where he is
and that i miss him.

nobody responds
as it's 2 a.m.

why am i awake?

i try to sleep
its been an hour
3 a.m.
and my phone screen lights up.

it's you.

why are you awake??

thank god you're awake...

why do i care so much
about meaningless **** that won't effect my future?
that only gives me daily headaches when i think about it,
or makes me quickly furious?
whatever the reason,
it's like an ****** for my brain...
