[H O U R S]

It’s just another 3 am in a row
Like a gust of wind
Taunting and laughing

I try to grasp it
But all it does is speed up
it knows it can outrun me

And I’m left behind
In a constant loop of 4 am
Wondering where the years went

Another hour gone to waste
I’ll add it to the pile that I’ve
Had since 2020 came around
And waste another one to mourn
