First sentence: Three A.M. Sometimes, when the nights are not easy, I can lie here alone in this big bed for hours, listening to the ticking clock or the sound of the crickets in the bushes beneath my window, part of me wanting desperately to get back to sleep, knowing that if I don't, tomorrow's meetings will be filled, for me, with little more than exhaustion.
