Waking Up

Written for KL Caley’s Thursday Write Photo – Arrowslit

I didn’t want to wake up.

Not that morning anyway, the sun is way too bright. It is boring into my eyes like I am in an interrogation room. Raising my arm, I shield myself from the barrage of light. I plump up my pillows, the beige wall muting my nightmares. Ten minutes, that’s all I want. Not much you say, for me it is that extra chance to close my eyes, a little bit of me time before breakfast, the school run, and work.

I am a fifty something mother of two grown up children, and one beautiful grandchild. I have been married for nearly thirty-four years. My first book was published ten years ago. I wrote my book Sticks and Stones because of my experience of being bullied at school.
