2 AM.

At 2 AM;
I wear the night.
concealing under the blanket of mystery,
stealing colours from the universe clustery.
I am trying to write,
what I thought!
Ceaselessly.
Unrelenting.
Embracing my chaos,
Chasing memories.
Hiding heart wounds that never bleeds.

At 2 AM;
As I look other way,
There is waiting another day!
And in few hours:
The rising sun and the rosy rays.
The silence of my lungs,
is taking deep breaths.
The frail line,
between gaining and loosing continually sways.
I am completely numb.
Feeling no temptations to succumb.

At 2 AM;
I am writing.
Feels like someone is listening.
Against the silence shouts,
those tip-toes, inside out.
With every question, I question!
Colossal raindrops.
The winding mess.
Oh! I wish I could express.

At 2 AM;
On window pane, I heard a sound.
It was the rain drops hitting the ground.
The air seems distilled,
Like I wave my hand and feel something.
The view is murky,
but I want to focus.
Sheets of water in heavenly disguise.
Raindrops kissing my lips; I fantasize.
It is time for rain and me to twine,
And all I want is to smile.

Rain has left a gentle dew,
Told me;
Feel happy in being you.
You’ll never see the dark so deep.
Because dreamers are not the ones who are asleep.

  3. Exactly these are our 2 Am thoughts, I liked the initial lines “I wear the night…”
    It actually happens when we aren’t able to sleep, a lot of thoughts about our own existence linger and crawl inside us and make us uneasy.

    You portrayed it all really well in this poetry. I so love you how to let your inner thoughts become your strength when you write!

    I am proud of you Anushka ♥️

  5. It is so beautiful at 2 o’clock in the night, as you have written in Poem, but you will have to praise it the way you think of yourself
    Really you keep on doing better day by day 😘😘😘
    Only such good thoughts can come to you at night, I only know how to sleep 😜😜😜ाााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााााsomething for you ♥️my 2 am friend
    At 2 AM
    I was all worried about life
    Thoughts were poking me like a knife
    My head kept on giving me a strife
    But then comes the bff caring like a wife.

    At 2 AM
    She knew what exactly I needed
    My craving to eat
    And giving my bitter head a sweet
    Tapping of her hand is what I needed.

    At 2 AM
    she gave me that soothing hug
    She served me happiness in a coffee mug
    When life was a thug
    She was the most helpful drug

    Lots of love ♥️

    Here are my messed up 2 AM thoughts

    At 2 AM
    i feel the insomniac inside me
    Overthinking is what it’s forcing me
    All the life events came in front
    Like my head just wanted to flaunt

    At 2 AM
    I feel like making the call
    For which I never had the ball
    Felt like eating everything I could find in the fridge
    But thought of getting fat broke that bridge

    At 2 AM
    I made the fitness plan
    At 5 am I was going to follow that plan
    Now I felt sleepy and all these thought felt creepy.

    At 2 AM
    I read your blog
    It helps me clear out the fog.

    Give your feedback about it😜😜🙈🙈🙈

    This is just for fun 😉
    Keep Inspiring 💙

    Love your work!

    Ok so first thing first…

    “I wear the night”…

    I mean what?…how creative is that…I was reading and read the first line and thought how can someone come up with such interesting idea.
    You know these are the elements of your writing that keeps your reader in the grip from the beginning.
    You embraced your chaos the way nobody can even think of.

    Well just to tell you …”sway” is one of the degree of freedom of a ship …so I really understood what your line said.

    At 2AM you please go on writing I promise I’ll be listening.

    What an amazingly positive ending you gave to this.
    Truely inspiring .
    Thank you for writing this.

    Never realised idea of 2 AM could be so beautiful yet an awe-inspiring mess of thoughts. You totally caught me in the moment…I couldn’t get away beyond 2 AM.
    Only a beautiful mess of a mind like you can get something so detailed and optimistic thoughts at 2 AM.
    Was waiting for your blog since this came little later than your usual time. But your posts are worth waiting for.
    Always a fan!…
