When I wake in the early morning light,
I can't bring myself to rise
Like a mummy wrapped in linen,
sleeping in a golden tomb
while the rest of the world continues,
just as it always does
From the frosty air seeping into my room,
my skin feels like marble
except for the occasionalbumps or indents
With a deep weighting sigh
I slowly rise from my tender, self-arrest
Although I am still burned from the night before,
It has past,
(until awakened again)
and I must welcome the new day

Oh it's like you read my soul.  I too do this most days, we aren't supposed to register hurt let alone feel it for a day or two..  Bravo

Every new day DE brings with it the promise of new things. . . new hopes, new dreams. . .

Awaken to the new day, my friend. . .

Thank you...I'm sure that most of us if not all of us have felt this way atleast once. I guess the thing is...to just believe that tomorrow's light is worth seeing. Believe me Sven...I'm trying...
