Morning Ritual

Another dawn come round too soon.

Crack an eye open 

And peer around the room.

Punch the alarm for one last snooze;

Wishing it were a pause button instead

So I could spend the day in bed.

Tryin' to be brave 

When all I wanna do is cry,

The ticking clock is my enemy;

I feel time passing me by.

Finally haul myself to my feet- 

Physically conscious 

But emotionally asleep.

Start prepping my game face

On my way to the shower;

Visualizing day's end

As I count down the hours.

Every now and then I feel the need to get back to my roots and right now I'm doing it musically. Here's a smooth little number by Nelson Serieux that I'm enjoying at the moment. If you like his sound, check out his Youtube channel.
