Waking Up

At night we are hidden under the covers

With our bodies tangled like lovers

Drifting off to our dreams together

Wishing we could lay here forever

But every morning is the same ritual

A routine that has become habitual

Trying to interrupt your sleep

But it seems like you are in too deep

Resisting all the efforts that I do

Because you do not want me to wake you

So when daylight arrives 

I turn over to you to start our lives

Expecting that by my side is where you will be

But I do not see you next to me

Instead, I am alone in this bed

And a thought starts to run through my head

Causing a formation of frustration

As I come to the realization

That every day, when the alarm goes off at seven

There will be nothing I can do, to wake you up from heaven
