Decided to give spoken word/poetry a shot. I hope you like it!

Your alarm goes off, you throw your arm to the side to make it stop
Take a minute, rub your eyes, let out a cough
Try to recollect what dreams you had and now it's tough
A little rough, to realize what you might want your reality to be is a bit too much
It's out of sight, you don't mind
You just get up, brush your teeth, eat your breakfast, out the door until it's night again
You can see, but you're living blindly
You feel sad, but you treat all the others kindly
You want to live for you and no one else but you constantly need reminding
And that's a bad sign
You get back home, alone without a friend
The day has ended so you wait it out, it's getting late
You get back to the thoughts of how life's just not that great
You think about how everything you want is out of reach
No words to speak, only feelings that can't be explained
You feel ashamed that absolutely no progress was made today
The same routine
Shut off the lights
Without a fight, you just accept that everything is not alright
You drift off, and you don't blink
Because to sleep, is not to think
