3 AM

3 AM

A Poem by Rene Velez

it is late,

entering the witching hour,
insomnia treads,

scribes by the Lotus flower
but if i beg,

humbled as a pauper for bread
will the maiden of dreams find me...
eyes burdened,

weighted,

by the sins of hands
I do not pretend,

truths transcend beyond my reach
quiet as the night I am silent in speech
but loud enough for her to hear,

it draws her near,
poems do appear,

my dreams sincere,
she lies in wait of violet streams
and still i can not touch my maiden of dreams...

Insomnia was never described so gracefully. Me and the maiden of dreams are no longer on speaking terms man idk why but that b***h hates me lol. Nice poem Rene

This is fascinating :) Such experiences in the dead of night, the errie time of night, can leave us in surreal gaze...so close to everything/nothing! Amazing work xx
