Upon Waking...

Pillow flipped, then tossed aside. Wet from sweat. Roll over. Turn from side to side. Tired eyes complain inside. Sleep seems unlikely yet I still give it a try. Blanket pulled aside but not before my whole self is wrapped in a damp wetness. Another pillow pushed away. Knees pulled up near my chest until seconds pass and they're stretched out again. Alarm is set for any minute now. Should just get on with it and remove myself from bed. Turn over again and close my eyes. Time and comfort laugh at me.
