'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 ThoughtsToday I inked my skin with your nameNot because I like the look and not because I love youI got a tattoo because I enjoy the feeling of knowing it will never leave me even if you decide to.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.All I’ve ever wanted is to feel wanted by you. When the dawn breaks, the morning sun brings acceptance, healing, and recovery.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.
