'ouch It Hurts'- Collaboration

Once, a girl in my tip-top prime was I, not much sleep needed after a lullaby- contoured figure with toned legs and buns, gym at 6am just to show off my guns. Now morns are as rough as a sty in my eye. Rising early can be so unbearable, but back then it wasn’t so terrible- I’d leap with a pep in my step with a tune in my head awaiting my nap at noon. Now that alarm I hear is not comparable! “OUCH! IT HURTS!” that buzzing sound. The unrelenting noise does astound me when I try my best to get up early morn, eyes water and my forlorn body worn. No time for laundry when your bed bound. In the summer I awake at almost one, demanding nights, so much to get done! I used to be able to sleep much less, now darkness in the morn does cause stress- I can’t stand rising earlier than the sun! for contest COLLABORATION sponsored by Line Gauthier August 10, 2019
