tired
so tired
and still awake
sight blurring
in the middle of the day
but you still need to have a life
so out you go
out, out
out and about
with fam and friends
while all you really want
is your bed
the lovely heavenly place
full of softness and warmth
that place of sweet dreams
and deep sleep
perfection
until the alarm destroys it all
waking you up
singing of Godknowswhat
but up you go
out, out
out and about
your usual workday business
and come the weekend
you may be able to
snuggle up
wiggle down
wrap yourself up in eiderdown
and shut the world out, out
until you wake up all on your own
at least that’s the hope for now…
