Heavy Blankets

Today I don't want to get out of bed The blankets weigh heavy on my head Morning light it feels so far away Reality knocks but I can't face the day Is it depression or just a phase These thoughts they wind through a misty haze I lie here thinking of simpler times Hard to get up when I can't find the rhymes Heavy blankets holding me tight Wish for a hand to lead me to light Whispers of solace that I can't find Looking for ease to free my mind Clock on the wall gives another tick Seconds pass slow and my heart feels thick Staring at shadows they're dancing slow Where did the joy from my yesterdays go Burdens unseen they're wearing me thin Hiding from pain but it finds a way in If I could just lift this weight and stand A simple touch or a helping hand Room's getting darker can't find my fight Midnight's a thief stealing all my light If morning could come with a brand new tune Maybe I'd find my way out of this gloom
