Sun
greets me prematurely
as I stubbornly lie awake
just a few minutes more
I wish I could watch the day
from the sidelines
and not participate
In the mornings I
am far too tired

Oh my, I can relate to this one all too much!
Tired as in soul tired, not (or maybe as well as) physically tired. Nice!
Love the lines …

A 4yr old once told me (as she snuggled under my covers) that you are not really awake until you are standing up … a principle I still adhere to – lol
