Morning Horror Story - Poem

Every morning I lie there sleeping,
When my peace is destroyed by a god-awful beeping.
My dreams shattered, sudden and drastic,
By this evil, awful, red-eyed chunk of plastic.

I roll over in pain and hammer on the snooze,
Grumbling, groaning, thinking 'Why must this thing torture me so?'
'Don't make me get up, just five minutes more!'
The same thing I've said every morning before.

It's not that I'm not a morning person, or that I dread the coming day,
It's just that I hate waking up in this way!
I'd much rather rise up along with the light,
Shining through the window, glowing, beaming, bright.

But the sudden screaming, the unbearable fuss,
Makes me want to scream, cry, and even begin to cuss!
Especially the knowledge that all of my sorrow
Will be repeated the same time, same way, tomorrow.

A Bit About The Author

Hey :)
I'm Liv. I've never had a blog before and I'm afraid that we have grown quite attached. I like to write poems, take pictures and post about my boyfriend A LOT. He's an "artist" and at some points I've posted a link to his blog which you should have a look at. Recently I've dabbled in writing fiction so take a look and let me know how it's going.
Some of the poems I write need work, I know but any comments are much appreciated.
