3:00am, more or less

PerditaRose

Awake again 

In the early morning

A habit has formed

Fighting my sleeping pill

For the best time of day to write

No one else around 

The only sound

Is the furnace heating the house

It keeps me company 

Everyone else is deep in slumber

I used to envy them

Now I don't mind

The best compensation

Is writing this poem

It's like coming home

To myself.
