Rude Awakening - Prong

Another rude awakening.

The hard life that’s been our school.

More of a cruel

day’s

reckonings.

Our prime time used up too

soon.

There is no kindness to waste- Why help those crying for more?

It spins you

around, takes you for a ride.

What is the

point to even try?

Somehow got to learn to accept the rejection.

The tired thoughts

from troubling.

A weary mind from

worrying.

Your constant fears upon wakening.

Your real life left in your dreams.
