WakingMy secret way of waking is like a place to hide. I'm very still, my eyes are shut. They all think I am sleeping but I'm wide awake inside. They all think I am sleeping but I'm wiggling my toes. I feel sun-fingers on my cheek. I hear voices whisper-speak. I squeeze my eyes to keep them shut So they will think I'm sleeping BUT I'm really awake inside - and no one knows!
