The only time for myself

Comes late at night

When the lights are dim

All but my own

The headphones on

Listening intently

Indulging in what I cannot

When everyone is awake

The feeling of joy

Swells in my heart

Burning against the gaping hole

Of loneliness

The underlying theme

That no one understands

All but the unreal

Bodiless comments

Joining me

In living through the only time for myself

By myself

Inspiration: My late nights watching videos or listening to music after (perhaps finishing) homework.
