Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Running Out of Juice

Inspired by and written for Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – thank you GC and Sue

With Metallica acting as my wake-up on my DAB alarm this morning – I love heavy rock, especially Metallica so not complaining. A write about alarms, well, I know what alarm drives me batshit crazy so here goes-

Running Out of Juice
Form: Triple Bina

Wake-up alarm time to do
Thoughts still lost in a dream

Sipping tea pausing a dream
Getting dressed ready to do

Bright yellow says let’s do this, work is not a dream

Outside a car breaks the silence
But it’s outside leave it alone

The phone rings I’m not alone
And I wonder what happened to silence

Empty streets of silence working home alone

Then I hear it piercing my mind
My soul cries and my heart feels flat

Incessant echo from inside my flat
Where is it now haunting my mind

The worst sound in my mind, somewhere a battery going flat
