What a life waking up Smiling for the day ahead
Smelling the coffee Or the flowers
Reading morning papers
Watching people pass by to their jobs or school
what a life waking up
dream about the loved one caught up in a thought
what is she doing right now
is she smiling or frowning is she working or just sitting
what does she think at the moment
what a life waking up
feeling the winter breeze embracing thyself to produce heat
rubbing the hands together breezing in to them
covering the ears from the cold
longing for a cup of hot tea
scared of the day just thinking about the mean faces
what a life waking up
seeing the bully’s ugly face
feeling the heat and the pain
scared of the mocking faces
frighten to be rediculed
then again
what a life waking up
be ready to go to school
to see that pretty face
to hear her kind voice
to smell her scent
to feel her touch
what a life waking up.
