It would take longer to get up and find a notebook

Laying in bed
smoking a cigarette
with a semi-frown
and a semi-smile
only because my face
got used to this expression.
Sure, uncertainties dance around,
but my own personal cure
is being mixed.

There's books to be read
and sleep to be had...
A lover to love
and a fight to fight,
but that will happen
because it's time now.

Previously, there were things
to learn and forget,
but that's in the past
and there's too much
to be getting on with
to get stuck back there.
