I'm posting this at midnight. Write a poem about your late nights, your aches, your laughs, your last thoughts before sleep, your dreams. Write about the way you feel, especially if right now is a late night.

Alone With My Misgivings

This misty hour

My thoughts grow sour

The shadows devour

From my dreams I cower

When I'm all alone

And the sun has gone

The night drops like a stone

And chills to the bone

In the darkness of my mind

Not a bright thought I can find

I pull and watch my life unwind

I am to myself the most unkind

Even if I sleep I know

That I will wake tomorrow

And I will do it all again, so

I should probably just let it go
