My alarm wakes me up early.I snooze it so fast, at least thrice,Before I finally open my eyes.The light from the phone blinds my eyes.A Bible app notification pops up,I ignore it.I quickly open the tiktok app.I glaze over people’s luxurious lives,Following up on who bought what,who is going on holiday,wondering when will my life […]
