Shadows at 2 AM

Strange how the torrential rain of pain,
Envelops and reigns
Over my trauma brains. 

At 2 AM dot,
I wake up like I'm shot. 

No bullets to the chest,
Yet I cannot rest. 

The discomfort is unbearable,
My life suddenly unrepairable. 

Rest I must,
For I don't want to turn to dust. 

I must simply accept
All those who've left, and not allow myself to feel so swept. 

For promises without action
Are just that—empty and hollow. I must not have a reaction. 

Strange how the torrential rain of pain,
Envelops and reigns
Over my trauma brains.
