alarm - Atlas, no sentences

Got my eyes on a computer screen

Tryna work my digits in

I fidget with my lettering

But never with my sentences

I pause and check the clock and it appears it’s 6am again

Another, night wasted

Or, another day finished

And my mind is steady running in place

I don’t wanna fall asleep 'cause I got so much to say

But I don’t wanna stay awake and keep exhaustion at bay

Because I’m presently just dead inside the bed where I lay

I might just well work now

Maybe it could suffice

As more a method of confusion than it did bid a life

It’s like my body parts are planning out an intricate heist

Except my mind has been logged in on a different device

And my session expired

I’m exceptionally tired

Every step is like fire straight from my head to my toes

See I’m an excellent liar when I have slept the required

Eight or seven hours prior

But in present Imma go the fuck to sleep and uh

Get some goodnight’s rest.

That sounds like a good plan.

Well, goodnight.

(Alarm sound) Oh it’s morning already?

Alright fine.

Okay rise and shine

Hello to the ladybugs

Insert several other stupid phrases about waking up

Rub the sleep out of my eyes and view the clock that hangs above

And hit the snooze a couple times to keep my hours 8 or plus

Check my phone once, twice, three times, four

Just so I can see the second I messaged my mon amour

For a day to her small excursions straight to a donut store

Where I’m holdin' an open door to convey that I’m spoken for

And it’s great, it’s a total score

A wonderful set of things, that exist

In my present bubble of love

Where the petals sing

As they’re bloomin' on every flower

Movin' to better things

Engulfed in a heavy shower

Of rain that the weather brings

And, even though my days might be presented slow

They pass before my eyes at higher rates than even engines go

And the cycle will repeat itself like history and Reddit posts

So what’s the point in fighting?

I’m staying up and letting go
