HARDHEADED (In Response to a Prompt : Reason)

There are mornings when I search hard

looking for a reason

to get out of bed.

One of these days

I might find none

and decide to stay inside

People will say she’s given up,

she must be dead.

There! One good reason!

To prove them wrong

I will get up just to show

I am not done yet.

With thanks to Harper Thorpe
