"Night Owl"
Written by Alana Cheng
The darkness of the nightfall that holds all of the stars in the sky, I can only look up for the inspiration to ask all the questions of why I am living my life through a situation that doesn't seem to be getting better anytime soon, and for what it's worth, I can only see everything for what it all can be to how there would be of the silver lining in looking for the essence of the positivity from the endurance of all the negativity of how this life of a situation of being so emotionally beaten of the verbal abuse of all that I can take, I can only become the night owl of who I have become, of being in the silence with the tears that are streaming down my face, as I can only whisper of the words of goodness with the gracious intent of closing my eyes in being the night owl that I really am to keep myself wide awake to the situations of everything around me that would make me feel so broken, as I have felt so broken so many times, but none like this of feeling like I am going nowhere, only to know for sure that I am really headed somewhere, I can only look for the inspiration of some way to let there be the tides of the ocean in my heart from what I can see to wash away all of the things that are keeping me down, and to let the rising of positivity with the peace of my mind that I know that I so deserve to have in the long run of knowing that I can blossom in my near future for having to become not only the night owl in the moments of right now, but that I can only come to be so much more than how I am only this little human being that is questioning why I am going through all of the harsh realities that are being thrown my way, only to knock me down, even though I know that I can rise back up again as I am the night owl that is being kept wide awake with these thoughts in my head that just won't seem to leave me alone than I am already being kept company of the realism of the misery to feel so stuck at where I am at, for I can only say my prayers and keep the hope alive for myself to pull through at this time of feeling so broken and devastated in feeling the way that I do right now, and to tell myself that I everything will be okay while I am being the night owl to think everything through in my head, even though I do believe with all my heart as always that in one way or another, things are only bound to become better by all the hours of the minute through these stages of every particle of truth is passing on by of the time that is on my side to keep me sane from losing my head in falling to pieces, alongside of being the night owl that I already am at this point in my life right now.
