Ache at 4 AM Amy M. Kennedy It's 4 AM and there's such an ache in my heart Tears slide down my lashes onto my face Lonliness surrounds me due to our being apart Missing you so much, trying to hold on with some grace I can hear the rain, the thundering, and lightning Holding my arms out, wishing you were here This feeling is so scary and frightning And slowly from my eye, falls another tear My heart feels empty, you should be with me But for reasons neither of us can control I'm here and you're there Heart feeling heavy, tears blur my vision, I can barely breathe or see I know you miss me just as much, even though you're not here...I can feel your stare You are my true love, and I will never let you go Somehow we will find a way to be together I toss and turn but I can't sleep When I finally am in your arms, I'll hold on forever Sweetheart I love you! ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |

Four a.m. is the hardest time of the night to be awake and lonely..too early to get up and too late to go back to sleep... |

Fabulously done. i relate a lot to this, even though it'sbeen a while since i've wanted to feel that way for a person. this was really well written, and the insomnia truly seeps through the lines. i dig it. oh, and i always have trouble at three am... but never four. hmmm... i don't know. Because PoetDevine has an interesting point. whatever We all got somethin' we need to atone for. |
