I hate four o’clock in the morning.
When the sky barely starts choking up colors for the new day;
when the foxes preach their screeching sermons to the dew-strewn grass;
when I can’t bear to face the day
again
and
again
and
again.
I hate four o’clock in the morning
because it reminds me that nothing will be patient enough
for my weary bones to gather once more.
It reminds me that,
like all things,
time will march on-
and I am not yet brave enough
to follow its battle cry.
I hate four o’clock in the morning,
and I haven’t gotten enough sleep
because I have given everything
to something that will barely give me back half.
But that’s the way of things, no?
We give
and give
and give
for what?
I think I forgot.
I have a tendency to wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning for whatever reason, and the worst part is it takes me a really long time to fall back asleep, so I wake up at 4 in the morning and I can't do anything about it :((
