The gardeners are too noisy in the morning I can't stay asleep I hear the chainsaw's screams I feel the rose's pain My head throbs from not sleeping Long nights buried in books Cold nights wrapped in blankets The cats fight and the babies cry while I let the shower run hot Chest burning Suffocating breaths in thick steam I went to bed early My hair still wet I closed my heavy eyes Searched my pill box nothing

No one asked you
The gardeners are too noisy in the morning I can't stay asleep I hear the chainsaw's screams I feel the rose's pain My head throbs from not sleeping Long nights buried in books Cold nights wrapped in blankets The cats fight and the babies cry while I let the shower run hot Chest burning Suffocating breaths in thick steam I went to bed early My hair still wet I closed my heavy eyes Searched my pill box nothing
