  • Wake Up Call

    A large amount of my days pass quickly in an unconcerned contented state.  

    I live life in a dreamy haze of apathy.  

    I put off worry.  I put off joy. 

    For another day.  

    I'll just get through this day.  

    I don't want tomorrow to come, but I'd like today to end.  

    I try to live in that place in between dreams.  

    Then, something starts to call.

    "Wake up, Beautiful..."

    "Wake up, Princess."

    Being awake is harder than I want it to be.  

    I can see things. Feel things.  

    Like when the covers get ripped off.

    The light pours in through the curtains.

    Everything becomes a stimulant.

    Not particularly in a good way.

    But can it be a bad thing to take stock?  

    It might not be a pleasant inventory.

    How can you discover what you need without knowing what you've got.  

    Wake up.  Re-evaluate.  Get upset about life.

    Care.
