Snoring coming from above me.
She stayed up all night.
Oh well, I'm not tired
Besides, it's still light.

She came home this morning.
Slept the entire afternoon.
I can't sleep yet though.
I sleep by the light of the moon.

So I'll write quiet poems.
To be read by people disconnected with me.
Because here on wattpad.
Is a different me.

I can write poems on wattpad.
In English? Not to save my life.
I can be free and confident.
I don't always cause people strife.

But the strangest thing of all,
As I'm sure you'll agree.
Is that this is the aftermath
Of the real life me.
