Two Eggs With Bacon

I knew when my eyes 

finally focused 

and acknowledged the new day

I wasn't ready

I knew when I heard the familiar sounds of the morning

I knew when I wished someone else could fry the bacon

Or butter the toast

But that no longer mattered

Like a soldier called into battle

Ready wasn't an option

It's a requirement
