![]() 4AM / unfinishedA Poem by Jon R.T.![]() Lazy hurt dreamers![]() It's four AM and I can't sleep. So, I'm looking at this cursor blink. Cellular in the dark, lonely connection. But right now.

So, I’m doing the only thing I can. Put it in the air for strangers to read. Guess I just need the dopamine. Haven’t the soul to make this bleed. Like I need it. I gave it up. Like so many things. All the old demons pressing me. Sorry. I miss you, words I won't get to say. Cus we're not speaking. Ever. These faults break upon my heart. And there is nothing I wish more for. Your happiness.
