4am



My thoughts are deep

But my actions are slow

I am not asleep

Rather, in a trance of lucid flow


I want to get out of here

Just free the night

I'm now counting stars

There's hardly two in sight


The city is half awake

And the signals blink red

This is when I can relate

When you'd rather be in bed


The ocean here is quiet

And the moonlight is bright

I'm not alone, never can be

There are voices all around me


It's been a while now

My body's growing numb

I'd better be walking home now

And see what I've become


The music grew louder

As the sun started to rise

A chill surrounded me

What a feeling, what a sight


It's funny how one of my worst nights

Turned out to be one of the best

My eyes finally closed after dawn

It all seems like a dream now, as I reminisce
