the ringing in your ear signals the arrival of a fresh start, the chilled silence of the dawn determines your spirit for the hours to come, your mind picks up your eyelids only to welcome the morning sun as you peer through the branches and into the bruised sky as you swim to the shore and engulf your toes into the sand your body aches to sink into the sapphire sea of your bed, only to drown and never surface again.

waking up
the ringing in your ear signals the arrival of a fresh start, the chilled silence of the dawn determines your spirit for the hours to come, your mind picks up your eyelids only to welcome the morning sun as you peer through the branches and into the bruised sky as you swim to the shore and engulf your toes into the sand your body aches to sink into the sapphire sea of your bed, only to drown and never surface again.
