This poem is part of The Warrior Poet Circle hosted by blogger, fellow warrior poet and friend Jason at Endless Impact. Read more great poems over there! The topic is Midnight.

I wrote this early this AM…very early AM….

Midnight

I am midnight
I hold the cuff of your sleeve
as you peer into future places
Neither dark or light
fear or courage
simply wondering
if sleep will come first
or the morning
