Cadbury Eggs at 1 AM


Cadbury eggs at 1 AM

How much lower could you be?

I know that it does not mean much

But it could be two or three?

 

Besides don’t I deserve this?

For waking up before it was 2

I spent 12 hours with other humans,

It’s time to eat some food

 

You honestly disgust me

I whisper to myself

While I brush my teeth with my own tears

And no ones here to help 

 

It’s time to close my eyes again

To try and get some rest

But all my dreams remind me of

Those crunchy chocolate eggs

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
