Smudged .

Smudgy eyes
Dark circles
That irritated look
The tired morning
Smudged kohl
Incapability to get
Out of bed
The laziness
Hitting the snooze
A million times .

The getting late
The falling out of place
Getting the absent mark.
Struggling to stay awake
Then sleeping in class.

My friend walks
To my backseat
Looking at me with curiosity
My usual smile
The casual shrug
That my night was worthwhile
"I spoke to him all night"

The laughter.
Then, respite.
