I wake up, not to the chirping of birds
But to shrill ring of my alarm
It's a brand new day
But i find no charm
i sport a resigned look
A feeling of inevitability
A few minutes is all it took
My morning chores done.
Breakfast, i hardly remember the taste
Lost in calls and deadlines
My mom looks at my face
Looking for signs, I hear only a sigh
I drive in a daze,oblivious
To madness, to traffic
We all, in life, join this race,
Losing our way, losing ourselves.
To sing in the rain
To walk by the shore
To play with my dog
To watch the stars
To hug my mom
To play with my kids
To make love to my wife
To read on a rainy sunday afternoon
Is all i yearn for.
A voice brings me back to reality
ID please?
A long day begins, a pity
One of many that i am wasting
Till i die with these dreams.
