I try to open my eyes
As heavy as sandbags
Reach for the snooze button
And fall back asleep
Only to be awoken again
10 minutes later

I turn off the blaring siren next to me
And reluctantly put my feet 
Onto the stone cold floor
And leave the warmth
Of the blanket wrapped around me
Moving into the cold air
Like the wind, it freezes me

I walk to the door
Put my hand on the knob
And wish, even more, that I could sleep
Just a little longer
