Late
and in the morning the rain keeps falling
a heart-stained melody to invade my dreams
i’m reminded that it’s time to awake again
however reluctant to peel away from warm sheets
the day is just around the bend,
but i slow hoping that maybe it will wait for me to be ready
alas, how naive of me to think the world even notices
climbing out, eyes groggy, steps shakey
it’s just another morning in a world of rush and i am late again
