An emotional awakening (May 25, 1999).

(*swoon*)


Waking Up


never really woke up this morning
just drifted through the day

struggling into the here and now
stuck in the there and then
stuck on a sunny overlook
stuck to a couch
stuck in a doorway

for it only takes a talk
a walk
a proximity
a kiss to wake up
and once awake
how could you 
struggle back into slumber?

without slumber
can you 
really wake up in the morning?

choice and destiny
fantasy and reality
sense and sensibility
