before sunrise

it's 4.25am and it's about to dawn here. it's still dark though, and everyone's sound asleep. i can hear someone in the neighboring building snoring if i take off my headphones.
i couldn't really sleep, though i tried, so here i am, sitting on the floor in a yellow t shirt and pink underpants, listening to music and waiting for the sunlight to start seeping through my bamboo shades.
i am smoking an indonesian cigarette. it is filterless and strong. it tastes like cinammon and clove and it makes crackling sounds from time to time. i like it. it burns really slow and its smoke crawls up the ceiling in thick, heavy curls. this moment seems endless.

can't wait to go swimming tomorrow.

bright eyes -- we are nowhere and it's now
