There is so much I hate
in waking.

There is the stiff numbness
of the bones,
the soft shock of a brain
trying to cope.
There is the muster of strength
to leave somewhere warm
to leave the comfort
and sweet numbness.

Above all
there is a sense of being uprooted
completely and unwillfully
so that in catching the fragments
of a dream
I cut my fingers
to pieces.
I had this in scraps. I don't know why.

This is amazingly accurate.

I feel like this every time I wake up by alarm clock. However, if I wake up on my own accord, I'm not so bothered.

I'm curious though, what prompted the title?
