Wake up

Wake up

A Poem by Joseph S

Wake up
Roll out of bed
Eye ajar, midnight pulses
Tentatively I rise, legs swung over the edge of the world
The water's near, I take the plunge
Smelling lavender and vanilla I am born anew
droplets of life drip down the drain
I dry
The costume fits perfectly
Hiding my imperfections
looking in the mirror,
I peer into my soul
when did all this happen?
I step out the door,
the blinding suns glares as ever somewhere above the clouds
I cannot see.
Maybe after a while,
After I return to my bed
After I surrender to sleep.
