I'm not sleeping It is 4:57 am I'm supposed to be sleeping But all the things went wrong First it was mosquitoes And the fear of bites Then it was siblings And sleeping in a space too slight Then heat crept up And made its bed Sweating in the temperature It got inside my head Also, did I forget to mention The power's been out Thankfully, finally, it's back But it's a little late now So no I'm not sleeping and it's 5:02 I have a busy day in the morning So I should, it's true But I'm not sleeping

I'm Not Sleeping
I'm not sleeping It is 4:57 am I'm supposed to be sleeping But all the things went wrong First it was mosquitoes And the fear of bites Then it was siblings And sleeping in a space too slight Then heat crept up And made its bed Sweating in the temperature It got inside my head Also, did I forget to mention The power's been out Thankfully, finally, it's back But it's a little late now So no I'm not sleeping and it's 5:02 I have a busy day in the morning So I should, it's true But I'm not sleeping
If this is the worst poem you ever read, just remember all the stuff it says. I really should be sleeping 😭
