12:00 AM is never only a place for your sadness. There is so much more beauty in the hour: midnight air rattling against your windows, the blank sky darkening with moon-lit ocean blue, the promise of another day to come, the thought that someone on the other side of the planet is whispering “I love you” in the middle of breakfast, or that someone is working their way to their dreams, or that another individual has come to the concluding peak of finally achieving their lifelong goal. 12:00 AM can also be for poetry laced with new beginnings.

Please, please make it happen for you too.
