I wake up creaking, stiff and wanting to cry, from pain or sadness, I'm not sure. I wake up not here: still dancing in lilac fields where nothing seems to matter, where you disappear and my stress follows. I wake up not wanting to; wishing I could turn over and rock myself back to oblivion. I wake up cursing and I know it's a new day. I know the sun comes back around but fate seems like a ************ and it won't let me in am I going to be great or am I just here? I wake up waiting.

when i wake up
I wake up creaking, stiff and wanting to cry, from pain or sadness, I'm not sure. I wake up not here: still dancing in lilac fields where nothing seems to matter, where you disappear and my stress follows. I wake up not wanting to; wishing I could turn over and rock myself back to oblivion. I wake up cursing and I know it's a new day. I know the sun comes back around but fate seems like a ************ and it won't let me in am I going to be great or am I just here? I wake up waiting.
