4. Too Lazy to Wake Up

Notes:
All you want is to lay your head on the pillow, clutch the blanket close, and never open your eyes, whatever may come.

How little I want to wake and rise,
Or touch the daylight’s restless tides.
I wish for nothing but only sleep,
To doze and dream and slumber deep.
To see my wishes drift in dreams,
Like floating clouds in layered streams;
To toss and turn the whole day through,
And hug my pillow tight and true.
Why should we even start the day
When rattling nonsense knocks our way?
And do we truly want to live?
The sea has more of peace to give.
So how are we to make a stand
When sleepy hands refuse command?
And how to lift this awkward frame
That lies there, boneless, soft, and tame?
