waking up in the morning

Somehow, you keep breaking your way into my thoughts. You make my nightmares more bearable. I wake up and I don't remember the stress of the night I just spent in my head. I just remember that you were there, and it helps me keep my sanity. I'm not opening my eyes more tired, more stressed. It's easier to get out of bed. I'm not as distracted with my demons during the day. You may not be here. And that may hurt. But for now, you're helping me get up in the morning.
