3am

The clock is showing three AM, The middle of the night. I'm halfway through the darkness And the almost-morning light. It's a very eerie spot in time When all the world's asleep. Emotions, thoughts and brain-waves Start to run a little deep. This nighttime feeling is so real My psyche is fully charged. Everything that passes mind Is sharpened and enlarged. I'm motivated, driven Feel alertness in the mind. I'm ready to explore new turf To see what I can find. I safely say that in the past I got to delving far, Especially on nights I've seen The last remaining star. I can't give up this special hour Just to get some rest. Why, that would be too dreadful Wasting time that is the best. You also can experience The magic of this hour. Stay up until the clock strikes three And then you'll feel its power.
