The Daily Routine

wake up in the morning.
and everything is ok for a moment,
then i realize, there will be no
good morning kiss, no morning
greeting at all from you, my love.
so i cry myself out of bed, and
slowly wipe away my tears
while getting ready for the day.
and as the day progresses,
i am distracted by the classes,
by the people i see and places i have to go.
so to everyone out there, they dont even
know that i had a rough morning.
the day goes by like normal. only
thing that is really different is
the lack of you in it. and when
i lay down at night, ready for sleep.
i feel that lack the most, and it pulls
at my heart, keeping me awake till
i cant possibly stay awake any longer.
falling asleep on my freshly tear
stained pillow. just to wake up
the next morning, and do it all again.
over and over and over. my life
seems to be on repeat, unable
to move forward without you.
