Snooze Button

I keep sleeping through the alarm

because I don’t feel awake.



I can’t get out of bed

and face the reflection in the mirror

because she’s so broken,

she cuts through the glass.



So I just lie here and

nap through another beautiful day

letting my life pass me by

since I don’t want to be alive.



I keep sleeping through the alarm

hoping my dreams are better than reality.
