Headaches and Sudden Awakenings

I woke up from a poor slumber

To some hearty laughter,

Terribly loud and obnoxious,

And irritating to my soul.

I can only feel a certain rage

Through the dull headache

And the rude awakening

I felt on short sleep.

No tossing nor turning

Brought me back to a slumber,

Instead, bringing more resentment

For the space taken from me.
