Lazy Day

Warm sheets, and covered feet
Scared to move 
For the heat could instantly fleet 
Droopy eyes, and sour breath 
A new day 
Another tomorrow 
But perhaps I'll stay in bed a little bit longer 
Muscles ache, and time continues to tick
But somehow laying in bed makes it all slow down
Time stops 
And energy is restored 
So now I can be the person I was before
The alarm clock screeches 
The ceiling fan buzzes 
The dog barks a symphony but I won't budge 
Simply just waiting for the sun to fall 
For a new day 
Another tomorrow 
And maybe this time 
I won’t want to stay in bed a little bit longer 
And the screeching alarm will stop 
And the ceiling fan will end its endless spin 
And the house will fall quiet 
And I’m now ready to start a new day 
Another tomorrow 
And a more interesting chapter
