Just past three am ....


Lynn Greyling



Just past three am 


Just past three am 
at the time of heart-
attacks and passion
Just past three am
staring in the mirror
just past three am
stroking shiver-lip
just past three am
waiting for a thud-
ding heart to quiet

    Exactly the feeling of waking from a nightmare.

    The early morning heart beats somehow have a special loud sound all of their own.

    3 am can be one of the loneliest times of the night.
