After 2AM

After 2AM

A Poem by Askew

2:33 AM
everyone is asleep and she is alone
what is she to do when she has no one 

2:40 AM 
she cries silently so as not to wake her family
nobody is answering her calls

2:43 AM
cold and shivering she begins to pace around her room
her blood is boiling in her veins 

2:48 AM
she calls again and quietly begs someone to pick up the phone 
silence answers her 

2:57 AM
the power goes out
she can't see in the dark
