![]() Don't Sleep Through The NightA Poem by Alexandria Miller
I spent many nights on the concrete slab
of the patio avoiding the 2am dew in the cool grass. I shivered and wandered and sometimes wept with the wind and the stars as the rain fell upon me. It was a place to be raw and natural, away from all of the faces and the voices and the looks. There is no place at night that I couldn't feel myself, that I didn't feel alone. For once I felt like I belonged, even if I belonged to nothing but the grass between my toes and the glaring moon reflecting in my eyes and my soul and my being. That is enough for me. © 2016 Alexandria Miller |
