I'm awake
I'm Awake Now
I am awake now,
no more in my dreams
A cold day awaits
Sitting on the edge of my bed
Still dark
only the moon gives light
three minute discourse
You go first
no you go, no you go
I went in the middle of the night
okay I'll go, don't you puddle the floor
Oh Moon, o moon
Please send me another dream
Sitting the edge of my bed
A cold day awaits
. . .

Awake! Ah, the mid-night rush! Well done.
Oh no awake is not fun You described it so well
May your day be warmer than expected!
Be careful what you eat before going to bed!
Some nice looping echoes here, Jim 👏
I wish you restful sleep
The picture you paint with words is an emotion we've all felt in one way or another. Beautifully expressed.
It is good to have dreams before waking up and facing the realities of the world!
Send me another dream but, first crawl back under the comfy covers. Stay warm
