Sleep is a drug

[Sara Tonin]

A linen panel covers my window.
A hint of a glow through its gauziness.
I don't want to move yet,
this sleep is delicious.
I stretch till I see stars
and black out a little.
Yawning, I bring my hand to my face.
I wipe my eyes,
so that I can clear
my view of this fresh day.
Rubbing my feet against these worn-soft sheets,
I wonder if 5 more minutes would ever be enough.
If only I could bottle this feeling,
the sensual nature of it.
I love to awaken but
I hate to trade my bed for the day.
Hate to trade my dreams for truth.
Forcing myself to put my feet on the floor,
I take comfort in the fact that
I'm just a shower away from being real again.

Who says a feline nature can only be had by cats? There is so much to be said for stretching for five full minutes before throwing back the covers!

This is me every single morning. Every morning i'll hit that snooze button just to prolong the sleepiness for 9 more minutes. At the same time i know I WANT to start this day, because as soon as the day starts the closer i am to having the things i want...Maybe it makes no sense, but in this little yearning head of mine it does.
By the way, i loved this.

Oh yeah, getting up is one of the hardest thing to do everyday, and it feels so good those 5 more minutes and maybe 5 more minutes...
...now you're late, w/no breakfast (that happened to me yestarday ) oh well!

I love that line. Being a dreamer myself, its hard realising reality is a lot harder than dreams are...
