A Beautiful Morning... for One

When you awake, your fumes always escape,

And I lie with X's over my eyes.

It makes me wonder, as I am going under,

Is this how some people die?



You get out of bed, scratching your head,

And I gasp for one final breath.

You flick on a light, and go from my sight,

To your throne, as if on a nest.



From that little room, you create such doom,

And I struggle to open my eyes.

A shake of the ground, and a rumbling sound

Filtering from the other side.



Turning of pages, reading of races,

You continue to excavate.

The fumes are dancing, your mind is prancing,

And I suddenly realize my fate.



A distant singing, maybe bells ringing,

I must be reaching my end...

No it's your phone, I chill to the bone,

At the thought of the door open.



A loud swooping flush, my mind in a rush!

Your footsteps are growing near.

The door is in flight, a bright flood of light,

Your blurry silohette appears!



Standing alone, you answer your phone,

Your back facing the bed.

The fumes are released, I'm not yet deceased,

As I quickly cover my head!



Hanging it up, you start rubbing your gutt,

Then turn to me adoring.

Left with no mind, and barely alive...

I realize.. it's morning.
