Three a.m.

What goes on at three in the morning where you live?

 

Ever wonder where

that sound comes

from

wind rustling trees,

a branch whacks

the roof

A cat meows

a dog is scuffing

you are stirring

at three

in the morning

get out of bed

point in time in

two hours

moreover you hear

this sound from

no where

everyone else is

sound asleep

so you are alone

Something is

   banging

at your chest

barricade

you comprehend it’s

your thunderous heart

nothing else

appears to be

moving on

 your carcass

“Please God”

are the solitary

two words

you have

Running throughout

your wits in

understood prayer

ice is swarming

throughout your veins

chilling every

component

never do you figure

what it really is

but recognize

this is for you

why would you be

awake at three a.m.

 in the morning

hearing something

so uncharacteristic,

stoic and with such

incredible menace.

or is it just

a run of the mill

no nonsense

bash in the night

from nothing

actually and you just

happen to be

  conscious.

Give it to me straight!

Well, I got chilled right now as It's close to three a.m here! Person's who suddenly wake up like that in the dead of the night, tend to be jumpy at times. People like me who does it regularly and has high-voltage rock music bangning in their ears by their headphones tend to not notice anything else in the outside world. Over all, It is a straight peice and I loved going through this! Thanks for sharing! ~KA~
