1:14am
Alone
Laying in bed
Oppressive silence binds
Heart pounds
Will I ever see you again
Will I ever
Feel
Touch
Smell

No

1:15am
Alone
I pick up my phone
No calls, texts, and IM’s
It’s habit checking every lonely moment
Most of them are now though

1:16am
Me and you with our cozy apartment
Me and you with our two cats
Why do I keep saying with

Was

1:19am
Alone
I grab my phone again
I find a podcast and hit play
Some familiar voices to sooth
Something to fall asleep to
But nothing too good as those are for
Lucid hours

1:46am
Phones buzzes
Wake alone
Phone
Email
Tears

Sleep

2:59am
Wake
What do I have to do tomorrow
Work
I check the time
It’s been tomorrow for 3 hours
I have a laugh
