when the sun rises
I'm still in bed
I can't get up
so I stay here instead
and curse the day
and remember last night
when everything
was working out right
I had hours to rest
perchance to dream
I know exactly
what exhaustion means
and I'm exhausted
every day
which is why I cheer
when daylight goes away
put me in my bed
sing me to sleep
tell me a story
my rest will be deep
and I will dream
in sleep I'll pretend
until I wake up
and do it all over again
