the morning raged like a bell 🔔

Awake, but forget the dreams I've had,  

Something happened,  

Between the reality of last night

and the reality of this morning.

Like a deer, startled and fleeing,  

It’s gone without a trace.  

All that's left to do is sip the water,  

Curl deeper into my warm cocoon,  

And pray to God there's no storm within,  

As long as the one outside will pass.
