Morning
The alarm goes off at four
the sun hasn't even risen
yet I have
and I couldn't feel worse
it's cold and dark out there
no sunlight to guide me
yet I go on
I manage to tear off my blankets and clothes alike
and get ready for the school day
my head hurts
and my legs are tired
yet I keep going on
I manage to make my coffee
And I think to myself
"Why"
Then I remember
four smiling faces
four beautiful people
four best friends
I want to see them again
I chug down the drink and head out the door.
It's time to see my favorite people once again.
This poem is about:
Me
My family
My country
