4:05 am

4:05 am , in bed
uneasily shifting
myself.
Eyes, cringing
Lips, biting
Hands, clasping
Breath, gasping.
Loud voices in my head talk :
Solitude does strange things-
not the one where you are cut off
from the world
the one, where you stand alone
even in a crowd.
The heat is ever soaring
ever unceasing
until it reaches its climax
and im numb.
These creatures ,
at the back of my throat
use spears and poke and pierce
as if they were waiting for the Voice
to somehow let itself out.
Coughing like a dying soul
I grab the bottle in the dark
opening it, it spills on to me
my eyes, the hair on my shoulder and yes it couldn't escape my neck.
Eyes, that were shut so tight
Lips , that were clenched in fright
Hands, numb last night
and Breath awoke, with a continued fight.

There is this divine trilogy staring at me
My solitude
My soul
And I.
I stand in the middle,
feeling like I belong to neither sides.
I stand
And now I shall
Sit.
