I've decided to participate in an exercise, sponsored by readwritepoem.org that well have me writing one poem a day based on the prompts provided.
Prompt: Metaphor
I'm not really feeling 100% about this poem but...it is what it is...ENJOY!
I open the door to my office and accept my fate
For the next eight hours
As I anxiously wait for the clock to strike 4:30
Then I’m out the door in a hurry
The keys tossed on my desk is the escape I’m waiting for
They start the car that will get me to the love that I get lost in
Staring at the frame on my desk
That holds a picture of my love
Who I keep my heart in
I struggle to get the day started
Constantly pushing snooze on my mental alarm
My escape’s so far away
"Constantly pushing snooze on my mental alarm"
