~She Woke Up~
1:04pm, it's dark in the room
except for a few thin rays of sunlight
penetrating the dark.
They are not bright enough.
Their light fails to contact the head of a girl,
the head of the girl under the blanket.
She has no will to move.
A black cat purrs softly.
Curled into a furry ball of heat by her side.
She groans, rising slowly
she opens her eyes
but they begin to burn.
Her chest is tight, her throat is closed
a hot stream of tears flow.
A gruttal cry from the depths of her soul.
The reason for her sorrow?
She realized she woke up.
