"Unwanted wake up call"
I saturate my lips
slightly caressing my tongue against them
violently the images from last night
drain into my brain
like an unwanted visitor
I want to shut down.
If emotions were a color scheme,
the rainbow in my world would be 10 fold
the clock stares at me
like the people in class who think you can't see them
I peel the blankets from my body
5:06 AM, and I have already given up the day,
I miss you.

I read all three poems and they're all great. I like this one especially because of the second to last sentence.
