What to do on the nights alone?

It is nearly 1AM
I always have such ambitions
To go to bed early.

Sometimes when I'm up late at night
I think there is a whole world to be had
Even did all the right healthy things
Tonight.

But yet again,
Here I am
Fighting the urge
Though I am in bed
To surrender
Let go
Give up for the day
And get sweet slumber at long last.

Once I am deep in it
I do not want to leave
I awake most days
With hazy tired eyes
That only coffee can immediately cure
And I think with an annoyance
If only I were a morning person.

There is something about the night
And the act of the days when you do make yourself rise early
Hit the gym
Before loud sounds and voices
Are interested and wanting so much
Before you are interested and wanting so much
Rest, heal now

Rest, heal now.
