The morning light trickling through the window nudges my eyes open for the first time this morning. The birds' are chattering outside; their voices calling me out of bed with songs of productivity. I take my first cup of coffee outside to the front porch, where I have a better seat to enjoy Nature's symphony. The air is warm and the sun is bright. It takes a moment for my eyes to adjust, but when they do, they are flooded with brilliant colors and movement; life in full force all around me, and here I am still trying to find motivation in a coffee cup.
I realize in this instant that I have to change. Why am I so human that I still must depend on these vices to get me through my day, my week, my life? Society has raised such dependant fools, and sadly, I am one of them.
Author notes
Obviously not a "poem," more like a reflection of thought.
