Between Sleep and Awake

Laying here somewhere between sleep and awake


A place between a-bliss and life’s pain


Hearing the familiar sounds around you


Hoping not to feel yet another day begin




Slipping almost into dream with a whiplash shake to reality


Enjoying the time distraction and interests this brings


Slowly being pulled into another day


By a will that seems not your own



Looking into your mind searching for a clue


Something that will tell you what was done the day before


Pushing things out of the way that seems common


Catching the one thing and holding to it



The thing that tells you what day this is


Calculating the issue of the day and things that must be done


Pushing through the sludge of the medication


To find a place to start



Wondering the differences of this day and the last


Looking for anything that might change things


And hoping, hoping with all your might and stating


This Day Will Be Different
