5am in June


5 am in June

There is something romantic

About 5 am

In June

The night is not over

But it is not quite

Day

The sun

Is trying to wake up

As the birds

Sing songs to one another

The world

Is engulfed in silence

And you feel

In that moment

You are the only person

Alive

The only one

To ever experience

Life

At that moment

You watch the sun rise

And everyone

Begin their day

Through your window

With tired eyes

And you finally

Go to bed

Because you can now

Sleep

At peace with the world

Because this is the only time

You can recognize its

Beauty
