you’re awake.

did you drink too much caffeine?
when was the last time you had caffeine?

you were just asleep—
		just on the other side of the water’s surface.
why can’t you go back? why can’t you find it?

you were just comfortable. now
	your knee aches,
	it’s too hot,
	your back screams.

the shadows taunt you.
		your alarm clock taunts you.
