2am Thoughts: Poetry that condenses an entire relationship into a single day

By Makenzie Campbell

7:34pm
One day you too will have stopped searching strangers’ eyes for companionship.
You won’t lie in a cold bed with nothing but dark thoughts to warm you.
You will not order a pizza for yourself in an empty apartment.
One day you will look into your lover’s eyes.
You will no longer feel alone.

The poetry of 2am Thoughts condenses an entire relationship, with all its untamed emotions and experiences, into a single day. As the long hours of the night drag on, we experience the obsession, fear, neuroticism, and the deep, universal longing for love.

‘This was a journey of nostalgia. I was swept up in memories of first love, first heartbreak, and healing, all within the span of one evening’ Courtney Peppernell, author of Pillow Thoughts
