I’m waking 

To the seeping lights above

Creeping through the hard-shut curtains 

 

Slow and sneaky

Venomous and biting

It dances in my eyes, taunting

Of an impending day

 

It snakes upon me

Not a friend nor a foe

Only a familiar mark, aloof from pity

Of an approaching day 

 

Light represents warmth and comfort

A beacon of hope for a day

A new day

 

But often

Silent and eerie

Sinister and cruel

Cold and disheartening

 

Swirling and twisting

Weaving and slicing

Prying and lifting

 

Until I open my eyes
