“Lazy? No, Miss-Judged” by Jayne King

I am pleased to publish the below poem, “Lazy? No Miss-Judged”, by Jayne King. For Jayne’s poem, “Dreadfully Drained” please visit http://newauthoronline.com/2016/03/03/dreadfully-drained-by-jayne-king/.

People think I’m lazy,
Sleeping until noon,
They don’t see my misery,
Making judgments, too soon.

They don’t know that I have been
Laying awake for hours.
Tossing as well as turning,
Underneath the covers.

Finally, as the world around starts waking,
My eyelids feel like lead,
Now, what I’ve been waiting for all night,
I have to fight, instead.

      Thank you. I’m sorry that you can relate. We should start a support group. Try writing, it doesn’t have to be poetry just writing down feelings is quite helpful. Good luck, J
