Every night I fall into this weird sleep. I will never be able to completely describe it, because I never completely remember. I can only describe it as "sections". When I awake through the night, usually the first couple times, I hallucinate very heavily. Sometimes it's one object, sometimes many. I can't begin to describe the images I see, they are unworldly.
I fall back into a deep sleep after the first "sections". Then always without fail, since as long as I can remember, even before the hallucinations, I wake up at exactly 3:00 AM every morning. Sometimes I will only stay awake an hour, if I am really relaxed. Most times I can not go to sleep till 6:00 AM.
This piece is dedicated to the mystery of 3:00 AM
Night-Night.

From now on when I am awake at 3am (and it is quite often) I will think of you. This is a really cool piece! but I'm sorry you have hallucinations :( If something good comes from a bad experience, does that even it out? Anywho...big hugs, I'm sorry you aren't sleeping well.
That's insanity! Must be rough to deal with... I love that you've turned your experience into a piece of art!
yikes! Sounds like "night terrors" where you are still paralyzed by sleep, but awake in your mind. At that time, people tend to have crazy hallucinations!
Also, a catholic friend of mine told my husband and I that 3am is the "hour of mercy." HA- now we tease each other when we wake up at 3 (which is quite often) and say, what do you need to repent for??? I just use it for a quick little prayer time! :D
I just posted something on my blog about dreaming ;) good timing!
Women's hormones are waking you at 3:00. It is medically a common thing. Sounds like everyone has found a way to use that time. "In the night watches" we are supposed to seek God according to the bible. Like a preacher once said, most people who read their bible in bed end up falling asleep. We should try that! Happy dreams!
