The Only One

Dark moments past witching hour, mind watching the clicking of neural connections dicing the silence. The past and future keep gatecrashing the eye in the middle of your nowhere. The only thing to do is blink those intruders away. For now, the night is a nether world one that does not reside in any clock. Your mind is struck dumb by a Greater Consciousness. Call that Stillness: Awareness, or by any name you choose, it is the only One here, the only one that is awake, the only one that counts.

The final word 'counts' gave me chills - I've attempted to write about those stayed up a little too late and there's something in air around me trying to find a home moments - I like this one
