Wake up when the alarm goes off

    must have set it for a reason
    a reminder from the past
    there are things to be done today
    places to meet, people to go

    thought was put into its creation

    to ignore the persistent beep
    would only be disrespect to
    yourself
    for it was you who set it

    or have you become someone new
    a person who is angered
    by a stranger
    trying to wake you?
