3 a.m is a tear
3 a.m is a tear jerker
I have conceded the most damaging fact that
I am never going to be that someone
you will always get to miss at 3 a.m.
3 a.m is a burden
3 a.m reminds me that I am a prisoner of my own rib cage.
Every sob I make at 3 a.m shakes this
piling emotions in my chest and it is damn terrifying because
every moment with these sobs I make,
these emotions could be flying all around in me.
3 a.m is when my heart screams
My heart screams all the pain away from
my burning feelings for you.
These burning feelings in me that is a wildfire—this wildfire that is making a
home in me, in my veins, every inch of my muscles,
and in my bones.
Technically, you are cremating me alive.
I am turning to ashes,
But oh God why do I still love you and
Why does it feel like any of these tortures are okay?
3 a.m is where you feel everything.
It is a tear jerker and a burden-reminder.
3 a.m is just the saddest place in this cosmos. And if I were still 12,
I’d warn myself to stay away from that place.
—dont wake up at 3 a.m
