the start of the day, in spite of my desire to stay in bed, languid and content

-
in the night
a street light
pokes through the window shroud

and I might
stay right
here if I'm allowed

feel the form
under soft and warm
waffled cloth in my hand

head on arm
the dog alarm
rises, stretches, stands

I don't want to get up

not enough

Would it ever be enough, even if I try would I ever get through, do more than get by Would I be enough, be enough for you? Is there any hope, or the slightest chance Before the music's over will I get the dance? and would it be enough, be enough for you? Too little of me I know it's true Fading quickly into the blue I'm not enough, not enough for you This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License
