Good Morning.
I have to say that.
No one wants to hear
That it's not.
No one wants to hear
That I woke-up at 4:30 a.m.
Got up and ready for work
Then got back in bed
Until 7:30 a.m.
Because I have depression
Lingering from yesterday
And it was too dark
My mind
And the streets
Though they are never
As dark
As country roads
But I made it to my desk
Still before everyone
But not early enough
To get the cobwebs
Out of my brain
Or my work self
Out of my back pocket
So here I am
Smiling and saying good morning
Whilst
Bleeding words
All over the internet
