4 a.m. (My only friend)


While the raven sky cloaks me 
in its quilt of stars 
4 a.m. catches all my tears 
The darkness of the world and 
my heart are one
Ensconced in my doubts and fears
The silence of the night keeps my sadness safe 
In its stillness I quiver like a frantic flame
Then out of nowhere
I'm embraced by faith 
My raging catharsis, tamed
