simple chains

With the sound of my alarm 
My day begins
I leave my bed in tears
In hopes to see it again
For what being doesn't love to rest?
And then I would clean up this shell
But like always forgetting my soul
Poor things been waiting for her bath
But all I've done is delayed that task
I hope she understands
I have other important things at hand
Like having perfect attendance
And passing my exams
Like keeping my family happy
And also my friends
But then when the day is about to sleep
I suddenly have this awakening
I'm not happy this way
The way the world tells me to stay
I do care about these simple things
But I want time for the higher tasks
I want to take the hand of my soul
I want to stare into her eyes
I want to see what she truly wants
And then I want to strive
For every notion that makes us happy
The every act that gives us bliss
And when I feel the strength of this urge
I realize
I realize these simple things are chains
That I'd let myself be strangled with
But now I feel they have another use
That is for me to keep in hand
And chain up in them all I want
All I crave and all that is happiness
And with that thought
I close my eyes
And let beauty have her good night.
