Stephen Jarrell

“2:36 am

2 am is for the poets who
can’t sleep because their
minds are alive with words
for someone who’s not there

For the alcoholics drinking
themselves into amnesia to
forget some who left

2am is not for the lovers
asleep in each other’s arms
It is for the lonely. the ones
who are in love with the
loved but are not loved in
return.”
