Mornings

Long hard days go by so slow

I lack the energy to pass them by

I wake in early morn to a blanket of snow

Wishing to lay down and die



I force my eyes open and feet on the floor

I try not to think what the day lies in store

I want to be in bed, in your arms so warm

But I've gotta get ready to walk in the storm



I look in the mirror at my expressionless face

Seeing nothing beautiful about it at all right now

The tiredsome lines with my finger I trace

You say you love me, but I don't see how

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Mornings - what should have been described as cheerful sunshine beaming through the window each day, tickling my face whispering "wake up" - has always been described as another nuisance forcing me to take on another miserable day.
