2 AM knows all my secrets. It's seen my face with smudged makeup and heavy eyes that won't seem to close. It's heard all my angry yelling, silent sobbing,and out-loud bargaining. It's smelled my clothes drenching in the scent of regret. It's felt the tears run down my face and the pain in my heart. It's tasted the whiskey tinged on my teeth. 2 AM knows all my secrets and feels all my pain.

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that this is really a great poem. I can really relate to it in many respects and I'm sure others can too. I hope you have a happier two A.M. thinking about an impressed reader!
