The only person you should try to be better than is the person you were yesterday.

In the early morning,

as the birds begin to

stretch their wings,

the world turns grey,

the wind blows in swirls,

and the loud silence

fills her ears until it's all

she can hear

 

But she would rather have

bagged eyes

disguise her strong will

than have beauty sleep

display it
