I Refuse To Move Anymore

The sudden screaming sleep stopper
stunned my sleeping soul awake.
The sky had its clouded cloak;
the air felt frigid and deathly dormant.
My muscles ached at the thought of moving
and I winced as my muscles stretched.
My eyes felt fleshy and rejected release,
as I impulsively upheld my body up.
"I refuse to move anymore," I thought
as my muddled mind grasped reality,
"But you must!" my mind argued.
I rise, my eyes still sealed, walking to
the gateway, as I brutally banged my big toe.
I yelped making me want to scream, sob
and begin to blatantly blaspheme.
Especially, seeing that my sorrow
will echo every morning
for many, many years.

This is an Old English poem I had to write for my English Literature class. However, I really liked what I came up with. I also got great criticism from my advisor when I shared this poem at a recent Creative Writing club meeting. I submitted this poem and is in the process of being published in my school's magazine. I hope you enjoy my poem.
