Waking Up vs. Falling Asleep: A Poem

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bradley U chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

As the sun starts to rise and shine

I can feel my eyes open up just fine.

The energy inside me has woken up

That makes me want a coffee in a cup.

—

The sun is as bright as my day

It’s like I don’t want it to end in any way.

Felt so hyper at the beginning

But felt so tired as my day is ending.

—

The energy that I had is now fading

The soft and fluffy bed is now waiting.

The time has come for me to rest

And it just feels like it is the best.

—

The sun is now going down and becoming dark

My eyes are now closing and I only see black.

Feel so exhausted that I just want to relax

And just wanted to lean in my back.

—

Feels so good waking up

But feels better falling asleep.

Just want to start my glorious day

And end it with a beautiful night.
