At 6:20 my alarm decides to talk

The cat is alarmed by the loud sound that I ignore

My head rises up from the pillow, that absorbed my dreams and thoughts

I wanted nothing more than 5 minutes of sleep 

At 6:25 I’m in the bathroom

The bags underneath my eyes scream the lack of sleep 

But my teeth are brushed and my hair is sleek

I wanted nothing more than 5 minutes of sleep

At 6:30 I grab my purple makeup box 

I tell my face to wake up and soak up my makeup

The cat circles me and tells me to go back to sleep

I wanted nothing more than 5 minutes of sleep

At 6:40 I drowsed into the clothes that I laid out the night before 

I grab my purple backpack and my coat 

The cat tells me goodbye as I walk out my bedroom door

I wanted nothing more than 5 minutes of sleep 

At 6:50 I’m in the kitchen half-asleep 

I need nothing more than a cup of coffee

I should cheer up as I walk out of the house  

But I wanted nothing more than 5 minutes of sleep
