The Napping House

Waking up
In the middle of the day
Surprised to find that I've
survived
Surprised I'm still alive

Waking up
In the middle of the night
Hiding from the light
Of the TV right in front of me

How beautiful, this therapy
I wish I could be here with me
But I've forgotten
everything

And I'm trying to be
mindful of
The places that I've been
and loved
The people who still mean
so much

So I wake up
In the middle of the afternoon
Hungover with a Xanax hue
Of purple and blue
