5: 03 Am Poem by David DeSantis

5: 03 Am

Rating: 5.0


In this late hour,
I'm utterly alone.
no one,
else,
alone.

Your ego driven view
a cracked hour glass,

undeniable
to
alone.

why couldn't you have her,
too beautiful

alone.

only
a pillow can comfort

restless
and alone.

egos do conflict each other, david...conditional and incomplete love makes you a lone captive in its cage......you wrote it out very well

Uncanny. At precisely that same time I was feeling precisely that same thing. Only you penned it better than I thought it. (Oh, you know what I mean) . t x

Everything always seems so bleak when we're awake at that time in the morning. Hope the sunlight helped to make it all better. HG: -) xx

The sparseness of the words upon the page, the image of the cracked hourglass and the repitition you use combine to create a sense of lonely contemplation in which the only thing you can do is embrace the restlessness of the hour...another fine piece of writing David.
