3 AM
the world at three o'clock in the morning
is a world that slumbers
with the sun under a blanket of earth
silent save for sisterly stars
i am awake
but for why, it depends
sometimes i fall asleep too soon
sometimes i dream up a storm
sometimes my alarm reminds me that i still have work to do
sometimes i just want to be different
awake
a rebel against the night
or day, actually
because the night
welcomes me
