the wrong side of the bed

it's good to be alone
when you wake up 
on the wrong side
of the bed
slightly cranky
because you have to go to work
today, and it's only monday.
you haven't had
your coffee yet.
if someone was here,
you'd have to put on a smile,
slip on the happy mask
as if everything is fine.
make small talk about
how windy it is outside.
but now, you just
get up and shake it off.
maybe look out the window
for a while
staring at the trees
dancing side to side.
