Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Please Leave Me In Lala Land

My hearts dream is alert, awake,
but cannot coax my body 
into even a dull eye blink.

My hearts goals are just
beyond my reach, I am
in lala land, and I want to
stay there.

My hearts song is now
allowing me to move even
a muscle, as I try to
recapture my dream.

The dog nudges my leg
again, wanting to get up,
smelling bacon I do not
care about or eat

UGH! It is a Tuesday.
I throw my pillow at
my annoying alarm.

I almost had it this time.

M. L. Kiser December 18, 2018 at 10:16 AM It won't do any good, I must've hit and knocked my alarm clock in the floor 50 times already and it still screams at me every morning. Those things don't die anymore. Cute. Caren Krutsinger December 18, 2018 at 10:40 AM I try though; always.
