4AM

4AM

A Poem by Isabelle Grace

It’s 4am,

Darkness engulfs my room

And my night light gives a ghostly glow.

Alone, in the darkness, I lie awake.

My thoughts scatter around the room.

Beams of moonlight fall

Like sun through a cloudy day.

The universe stands still,

But time is a train that can’t be stopped.

It’s 4am,

Crystal tears fall from my glass eyes.

And you’re just lying awake.

Maybe the silence is better,

When nobody else is around.

I am alone, a lonely cup of tea.

And you seem to be across the world.

I am alone, and I wish you were here.

It’s 4am,

And it starts to rain.

Drops patter on the window,

Drown the outside world.

I am stuck inside, enclosed in a box.

And I wonder,

Do you hear the rain too?

thank you! :)
Very sweet. I especially like:

I am alone, a lonely cup of tea.
And you seem to be across the world.
I am alone, and I wish you were here

Nice work.
